I have no problem with changing that bit in the example. I had it that
way only because I wasn't presuming any specific sort of structure, not
because I thought it should look that way.

We
can certainly make sure to use a more XML-like notation for
the example.

Hi
all,
I
like the new wording for a).
And
I know the example was not meant to be included in the
actual requirements. But if we were going to include an example, I
would make a
case to make it also comply with requirement 18 (which I recently
proposed),
that says for well-formed XML input that does not span segments (like
this
sample, "I like <i>italics</i>."), it is best practice to
preserve the inline XML element as an XML node.
So
I would rather see an example of the XLIFF that preserves the
node.
Not
like this:
XLIFF:
I like <XLIFFtagOfSomeSort/>italics<XLIFFtagOfSomeSort/>.
But
rather like this:
XLIFF:
I like
<XLIFFtagOfSomeSort>italics</XLIFFtagOfSomeSort>.
Now
if the source was, say, RTF:
{\insrsid12611904
\hich\af35\dbch\af11\loch\f35 I
like
}
{\i\insrsid12611904\charrsid12611904
\hich\af35\dbch\af11\loch\f35
italics}
{\insrsid11469172
\par }
I'd
be less picky about preserving the inline as an XML node.
I
know my hair-splitting is off-topic for requirement 12.
Forgive me for trying to set the stage for requirement 18.
Thanks,
Bryan

Yves, on further
consideration, how
about we rephrase point A as:
a) to store only the XLIFF representation, discarding the native data
I think this is clearer, because it's not really that we're just
discarding everything,
as in the following:
Source: I like <i>italics</i>.
XLIFF: I like italics.
But rather going for something like this:
XLIFF: I like
<XLIFFtagOfSomeSort/>italics<XLIFFtagOfSomeSort/>.
The existing text could imply the former as well as the latter
possibility.
