XLIFF 1.2 becomes an OASIS Standard

stored and carried from one step of the localization process to the other,
while allowing interoperability between tools. Congratulations to XLIFF TC
co-chairs, Bryan Schnabel and Tony Jewtushenko,
and to all TC participants including the representatives of IBM, Lionbridge,
Oracle, Red Hat, and SAP AG, for this accomplishment.
