csprd04 - conformance clarification

["Yves" <yves@opentag.com>]

In “5.9.4 Conformance to the ITS Module Specification” it says:

 

“Conformant Agents MUST be XLIFF Conformant in the sense of XLIFF Application Conformance and also implement at least one [ITS] data category defined in the section ‘ITS data categories defined in the ITS Module’ of this ITS Module or provide full support for at least one of the [ITS] custom annotations (ITS Mapping Annotations) specified in the Section ‘ITS data categories that have a partial overlap with XLIFF features’.”

 

In …the Section ‘ITS data categories… “section” should be lowercase.

 

Why is the second part ‘restricted’ to annotations? It would be simpler and more correct to say:

 

“Conformant Agents MUST be XLIFF Conformant in the sense of XLIFF Application Conformance and also implement at least one [ITS] data category defined in the section ‘ITS data categories defined in the ITS Module’ or in the section ‘ITS data categories that have a partial overlap with XLIFF features’.”

 

The current text makes it sound like it would be OK to support only the annotation part of a data category.
