Subject: Re: [xliff-omos] Feedback on JLIFF examples: aesthetics

For consistency it would be an improvement to add “groups”, “units”, and “subunits” in addition to “group”, “unit”, and “subunit”. Same as “notes” and “note”, which are already part of the schema.

I think this is fine, since what these names refer to is not the object themselves, but the array of the object. XLIFF has no corresponding concept -- <unit> really is a "unit", whereas the corresponding data structure in JLIFF is an anonymous object inside an array. So calling that array "units" makes sense.

Robert, what do you think?

In familiarizing myself with the examples by writing prototype implementations I would find it more natural if the serialization reads like the objects and properties of my model. Would we not name “unit” and “subunit” as plural as they potentially store multiple sub-objects?
