Hi all,

Here is a very good question from Ram Viswanadha:

We probably should have a solution for this in 1.1. Maybe simply adding
an attribute, or setting the rule that the content of <internal-file> is
the same endianness as the XLIFF document (not great solution though, an
attribute would be better).
