[OASIS Issue Tracker] (XLIFF-9) Use (also) the normal ITS namespace in the ITSM module

[OASIS Issues Tracker <workgroup_mailer@lists.oasis-open.org>]

     [ https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/XLIFF-9?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

David Filip updated XLIFF-9:
----------------------------

    Proposal: 
This has been resolved by consensus in the TC meeting 6th Dec 2016: 
-------------------------------------------------------------------- 
The ITS Module will use the W3C ITS namespace 
The XLIFF catalog file will point to OASIS hosted validation artifacts xsd and sch 
The validation artifacts will declare the W3C namespace but otherwise won't change their validation logic 
The XLIFF-defined definition in Key Concepts 
http://docs.oasis-open.org/xliff/xliff-core/v2.1/csprd01/xliff-core-v2.1-csprd01.html#d0e585 
will be extended to protect the W3C ITS namespace.

> Looking at the rules files for ITSM, we can see there are several data categories that cannot be mapped by rules because they do not
> have pointer attributes available.
> - Localization Quality Issues
> - Localization Quality Rating
> - Provenance
> - MT Confidence
> This means a pure ITS processor cannot process an XLIFF document and get any data for those data categories.
> This would be resolved if the namespace was ITS' rather than the ITSM (ITS Module) namespace.
> I believe we selected early on to go with ITSM even for the data categories defined from scratch because of the <sm/> case where the
> semantics need to be adjusted. Since, we establish (I think) that the <sm/> case is such that ITS processors cannot really resolve
> it anyway.
> In other words, the <sm/> case is hopeless if you are not an XLIFF processor, whether you use ITS or ITSM, and XLIFF processors do
> treat <sm/> in a special way in the case of ITSM. They could do the same for ITS.
> Hence, it seems all the data categories that ITSM implements 'from scratch' could be in the normal ITS namespace, and work for both
> XLIFF and ITS processors.
