Subject: RE: [xliff] Attributes for XLIFF 2.0


Hi Rodolfo, all,

I guess I am looking at this in the same way as Bryan: I am under the impression that we may have to look into this. I am tempted to extend Bryan's remarks as follows:

1. We may have to go for URIs (not just URLs)
2. If we go for URIs we may even have to go for IRIs

Cheers,
Christian

Subject: [xliff] Attributes for XLIFF 2.0

Hi,

One of the most common problems in XLIFF is the difficulty to validate
attributes. This is something we can improve a bit in 2.0.

Attributes that contain a file location, like "original" in <file> or "href"
in <external-file> are supposed to contain the location of a file. We cannot
check whether the file exists, but we can make sure that the location is
written in a standard way. I propose to enforce the use of URLs in XLIFF 2.0
for attributes that point to files; URL validation can be included in the
schema using regular expressions.

Opinions?

Regards,
Rodolfo
