Subject: RE: XLIFF 2.0 spec - dF Issue #03 - No PRs in glossary module
Thanks David, we (Microsoft) definitely advocate the need to have metadata on the glossary module since this is the only way we will be able to carry around
rich terminology that goes beyond simple Term | Translation | Definition, such as part-of-speech, usage notes, product version a term is used in, etc. Thanks, Ryan From: Dr. David Filip [mailto:David.Filip@ul.ie]
Ryan, re your note on the metadata module. I pointed out earlier today as an issue that the glossary module is not capable of carrying metadata.. See below.. Cheers dF

---------- Forwarded message ---------- Dear owner, all. [P.S.: Since all *.org links stopped working on my machine due to some strange DNS error, I cannot lookup the owner on our wiki :-(] [I vaguely recollect that the owner might be Rodolfo (?)] If there are no PRs, no one will be ever able to delete the module data. This is just the gravest consequence. Other than that, PRs (and definitions as needed) should be provided that could support a 'naive implementer', i.e. someone without the L10n tribal knowledge. Other issues with this module: [Please start a separate thread if you want to discuss this issue..] 03.01) This module is unable to carry any metadata (except the mandatory source attribute on <defintion> which does not seem sufficient), I guess that provenance attributes
should be specified at all levels or at least top two levels. Alternatively, the module could get extensible at the same levels (all three or two respectively) Cheers dF
