"Attempt to use string Description to refer to field description in type Verse.ThingDef; xml tags are now case-sensitive."

I come across a lot of errors similar to this with the new update for my mods.  What should I be looking for to fix these?

EDIT: I always thought things were case sensitive. It makes me think that I use <Description> and it should be changed to <description> but this is how it is my xml. Am I overlooking something or did I misunderstood this error?

The error means exactly what you think it means. In a17 and before, XML tags weren't case sensitive, so you could use either <description> (correct) or <Description> (incorrect). But now, though, incorrect capitalization throws up error messages.

Fix the tags so they're capitalized correctly, and the errors will vanish.

Thanks for the reassurance.  Got an editor that can search for case sensitive words now and seems that I have missed some.
