Subject: RE: [xliff] metadata and XLIFF
Hi Dimitra, You can see that there are loads of metadata structures even in
1.2 +--- <header>? | | | +--- <skl>? | | | | | +--- (<internal-file>
| <external-file>)1 | | | +--- <phase-group>? | | | | | +--- <phase>+ | | | | | +--- <note>* | | | +--- <glossary>* | | | | | +--- (<internal-file>
| <external-file>)1 | | | +--- <reference>* | | | | | +--- (<internal-file>
| <external-file>)1 | | | +--- <count-group>* | | | | | +--- <count>* | | | +--- <tool>* | | | | | +--- [Extension Point] | | | +--- <prop-group>* | | | | | +--- <prop>* | | | +--- [Extension Point] | | | +--- <note>* In <body><group> | +--- <prop-group>* | | | | | +--- <prop>* | | | +--- [Extension Point] | | | +--- <note>*
In <body>[<group>]<transunit> | +--- <context-group>* | | | | | +--- <context>+ | | | +--- <count-group>* | | | | | +--- <count>* | | | +--- <prop-group>* | | | | | +--- <prop>*
| +--- [Extension Point] | | | +--- <note>* | | | +--- <alt-trans>* Yes I think the memory matches are metadata too.. | | | +--- <context-group>* | | | | | +--- <context>+
And more of the same in lower nested elements.. We LSPs are extremely interested in having good containers for
metadata in the standard.. But you can see, this is a complex thing, some 80%
of the standard may be considered as dealing with metadata. So I am with Christian, we might need a comprehensible ontology for
metadata to be able to do a sensible revision of metadata for XLIFF 2.0. I am willing to work on the ontology with you and I think it is
one of key prework areas for XLIFF 2.0. Looking at the complex structure of metadata containers even in
1.2, your group should try and match their collected requirements with the
existent XLIFF capability, and consider well how to accomodate the
non-matching.. Cheers dF David Filip, PMO From: Dimitra.Anastasiou
[mailto:dimitra.anastasiou@ul.ie] Dear
XLIFF TC members, I
would like to keep you abreast of a metadata initiative which I am responsible
of in the terms of the CNGL (Centre for Next Generation Localisation) project,
where the LRC and three other universities of Ireland are partners. I
don’t know if it is appropriate or have time to discuss it in the meeting
tomorrow, but I would be glad if you give me your opinions about how you
imagine XLIFF version(s) in 2-3 years in relation to metadata. Do you have any
specifications? Will it include rich, explicit and flexible metadata? How will this
metadata help the whole workflow? Thank
you a million in advance. Kind
regards, Dimitra Dimitra
