Looking for Specification of XML Export Format

Question

Hi Adobe Community!
 
I'm a software developer, and I need some help to create an application that exports a timeline with multiple clips and markers into Premiere.
I could probably use the XML Export / Import Format. But where do I find the documentation / specification to it?
 
The xmeml standard is the old Apple Final Cut 7 interchange format. All the online Apple documentation on this subject seems to be taken offline, for instance here:
https://documentation.apple.com/en/finalcutpro/usermanual/index.html#chapter=97%26section=3
or
https://documentation.apple.com/en/finalcutpro/usermanual/chapter_97_section_3.html
 
Can anyone provide a copy of the old specification or point me to a place, place where I can find Adobe's specifications? Or maybe name an alternative?
 
Thanks and best regards,
Frank T.

Our implementation is based on Apple's FCP XML 1.4 spec, roughly corresponding to Final Cut Pro (not X) 7.0.3.  Perhaps OTIO is a path forward? PPro Beta builds support support OTIO import and export.

To the best of my knowledge, Adobe has not released any documentation on project file formatting.
