Re: [trans-ws] Groups - Tran- WS TC meeting modified

[Andrzej Zydron <azydron@xml-intl.com>]

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the minutes. I can confirm that there are no IP issues from XML Inlt 
regarding the GILT Metrics spec. The work undertaken by XML Intl regarding GILT 
Metrics has all been done under the terms of the Lisa OSCAR group and XML Intl 
has freely donated all the work which is covered by the Lisa OSCAR copyright 
notice which is at the head of the GILT Metrics document.

Non of the contents of the GILT Metrics spec infringes any copyright or IP of 
any of XML Intl's customers (I am Technical and Research Director of XML Intl). 
XML Intl has kept its customers fully informed of its work in the standards field.

Please find attached the latest copy of the GILT Metrics Volume spec. GILT 
Metrics is still evolving as I get feedback from the community. The current 
thinking is that GILT Metrics (GMX) will be a tripartite specification covering 
Volume (GMX-V), Complexity (GMX-C) and Quality (GMX-Q).

I attach the standard Lisa copyright which is also located at the head of the 
draft spec document:

---------------------------

This document and translations of it may be copied and furnished to others, and 
derivative works that comment on or otherwise explain it or assist in its 
implementation may be prepared, copied, published and distributed, in whole or 
in part, without restriction of any kind, provided that the above copyright 
notice and this paragraph are included on all such copies and derivative works. 
However, this document itself may not be modified in any way, such as by 
removing the copyright notice or references to LISA.

The limited permissions granted above are perpetual and will not be revoked by 
LISA or its successors or assigns.

----------------------------

As you can see there are no IP or copyright problems with OSCAR standards. In 
addition Lisa also has a mutual recognition agreement with OSCAR.

Best Regards,

AZ

> Peter has suggested that at present we should go with the count-group from the XLIFF specification rather than use the Gilt metrics. Gerard suggested that the lack of qualitive information is a problem and this is included in Gilt Metrics. Andrzej talked about the ideas behind this from the starting point of the count-group and the issues which made him decide to go further than count-group. He suggested that the reason for going with count-group rather than Gilt metric is that there may be some time before Gilt Metrics are finalised.
