Hi,
Some points to keep in mind regarding extensibility:
It must be safe to ignore custom extensions while processing an XLIFF file;
Extension points should not be allowed in critical elements, like <source> or <target>;
Extensions must not be used instead of XLIFF standard features;
A tool that generates XLIFF files with custom extensions must be able to accept an XLIFF file processed with other tool as long as the received file is valid XLIFF;
A tool that uses custom extensions should not expect that other tools update custom data while processing an XLIFF file;
XML schemes that define custom extensions must be public and documented;
Any custom extension used in an XLIFF file must be published under the same IP terms the XLIFF standard is published and be freely redistributable;
Custom extensions are subject to standard rules for XML handling and the recommendations regarding XML usage included in the XLIFF specification.
Best regards,
Rodolfo
