Hi Yves and all:
That's an excellent presentation. I have a couple of recommendations,
however:
In slide 14, I suggest that it be made very clear that a Skeleton
file is entirely optional. For example in Oracle we're extracting
our seeddata files in their entirety to XLIFF files, and we can build
our native translated files directly from XLIFF files without any other
information.
In slide 41, I'm not really understanding what is meant by this statement:
"Any XML-enabled translation tool can work with an XLIFF document, as
long as the text to translate is initially copied in the <target> elements.
However, this does not mean it support all XLIFF
features, but just allow to translate <target> content."
I think but am now sure that you're trying to make the point that any XML
enabled tool can edit XLIFF, as long as it results in the translation
representing <source> be written to the <target> element.
Or am I missing the intent? Also, the wording in the red text
is a little awkward - maybe change "support" to "supports".
All the XLIFF files representing the demo are in "XML" extension - I suggest
that we use "XLF", which is, per our 1.0 spec, the recommended
XLIFF file extension.
Looks really great otherwise!
Regards,
Tony

Hi again everyone,
Attached the final version of the presentation for Heidelberg. Christian
had
many ideas on how to make it better and we integrated a few slides
from
JohnR and Mark. We finished it today. It should go out to LISA today
so you
have about 8 hours and 40 minutes to send any correction/feedback.
John: I've doctored a little your example to add the 'localization
processing' part for XLIFF, to make it more general.
It comes with some examples for slide #39, the ones attached here are
almost
final, but today I'll work on making a better one for the EXE sample.
cheers,
