If the PR concludes favorably, Bryan will ask Rodolfo to update the titles and URLs, and hold a roll call vote during our May 29 meeting to approve XLIFF 1.2 as Committee Specification 4/ Quick debrief: recent XLIFF activities - Beginning this summer, the requirements for documenting certifications in specifications will change. If we want to avoid changing our spec, we should try to approve XLIFF 1.2 as a Committee Specification by June. - Doug and Christian's work on XLIFF 1.2 FAQs - Bryan's work on XLIFF 1.2 White Paper - Rodolfo's work on XLIFF wiki (http://wiki.oasis-open.org/xliff) - Rodolfo provided URLs to the newest OSCAR standards and asked for our feedback - - TMX: http://www.lisa.org/standards/tmx/ - - SRX: http://www.lisa.org/standards/srx/ - Tony said that LISA is also a qualified organization and that we could ask Michael or Arle. Rodolfo said he would get a certification form Arle or Michael (Rodolfo is a member of the OSCAR Steering Committee) - Request from Piyush Patel (http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200704/msg00020.html) > Hello there > > I want solution that will read the data from XML file and > make a skeleton file and XLIFF file after that the text from > the XLIFF file will be store in to the database and also > XLIFF file retrieve translated text from the database and > merge with the skeleton file and generate new XML file. I > want this solution in C# .NET can you help out for the same ?? > > kindly waiting for your reply. 5/ XLIFF 2.0 - Life after approval of XLIFF 1.2 - Below we have three lists: A. things we want to do, B. things we haven't decided upon yet, and C. things we rule out for 2.0. - Let's look at each item in B. to see if we can move it into A. or C. (or if we're not sure, leave it in B.) - Assign a TC member to each approved 2.0 item A. Items the TC has identified as likely next pursuits for XLIFF 2.0 i Reference implementations or toolkit(s) similar to DITA (Rodolfo) ii XLIFF validator tool to be included in a toolkit (Rodolfo) v XLIFF Round Trip tool could be modified to support: (DITA/ITS -> XLIFF -> Translated DITA model) (Bryan - it looks like I can change the xliffRoundTrip Tool license from GPL to Apache {according to an inquiry I made to licensing@fsf.org, the GPL license expert debunked our misconception that "Once something has a GPL license it is impossible to get out of it"}) - Feature updates: - - Update to XLIFF 1.2 - - Add option to produce minimalist or maximalist XLIFF round trip B. Items the TC has not yet ruled out iii Submitting to ISO once XLIFF becomes an OASIS standard iv Additional Representation Guides (DITA,.NET / Win32, Docbook) vi Subsetting / restricting XSD as proposed by Christian vii Version control Metadata - need to track revision information viii Ability to store Multilingual Content. ix Create a bare-bones XLIFF core, then provide extension modules that support additional features. x "Simplify, Extend and Clarify" (Core XLIFF functionality would be in primary XLIFF namespace; would be very simple to implement.) (Extensions would provide support for more complicated features like, Segmentation, Pre-Translation, Generic Inline Markup, etc.) xi Schema Catalogues; host a namespace Catalogues for XLIFF 3rd party custom / extension namespaces. xii More work on inline-elements: (Separate inline elements from other elements? Maybe as an extension? Stronger rules for when to use each inline tag?) xiii Define a multi-lingual "Localisation Kit" format, which may include: (XLIFF content + original source material+ all target language files+ skeleton files + reference files + some sort of manifest document describing/defining the payload. xiv Using XLIFF as a primary content authoring container. (Author stores contend directly to XLIFF instead of another proprietary format.) xv Terminology Markup (Has been suggested by Kara Warburton of IBM some time ago to support terminology markup such as translate (yes/no), subject-categorization, type, etc.) xvi [added April 15] Propose we create a requirements document for XLIFF 2.0 along the lines of the requirements document the W3C's XSLT committee drafted for their XSLT 2.0 requirements: http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt20req C. Items the TC has ruled out as likely features for XLIFF 2.0 6/ XLIFF 1.2 Specification status and timeline for approval as a standard A.

"Certification by at least three OASIS member organizations that they are successfully using the specification;" (http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/process.php#3.4) The following OASIS members were identified and sent requests: - Fredrik Corneliusson, Lionbridge - Christian Lieske, SAP AG - Matthew Lovatt, Oracle Corporation - Magnus Martikainen, SDL International (Magnus confirmed that the affidavit is available as soon as we need it) - Peter Reynolds, Idiom Technologies, Inc - Reinhard Schaler, Localisation Research Centre (thanks to each member for attempting to obtain certification!) ## Tony said that LISA is also a qualified organization and that we could ask Michael or Arle ## Rodolfo said he would get a certification form Arle or Michael (Rodolfo is a member of the OSCAR Steering Committee) v. [Date TBD] A (assuming i thru iv are complete) Bryan (and Tony) submit a TC (via email) ballot for TC approval to submit the XLIFF 1.2 Committee Specification to the membership of OASIS for consideration as an OASIS Standard D.
