Maybe we need more processing descriptions in 2.0? Hi, I'm not sure whether that's a bug in the example or a feature of XLIFF 1.2's new segmentation model. I know people that considered this a feature and implemented segmentation removing spaces between segments. In any case, this should be either corrected for XLIFF 2.0 or clearly explained in the specification document. Best regards, Rodolfo -- Rodolfo M.
