OK, that makes sense. Thanks, Yves for the clarification. Consider that part of the proposal revoked.

Hi Ryan,

 

Yes, that’s why I meant with “normal XML escaping syntax”.

Basically: we shouldn’t tell the user what to do. It’s an XML document they know how to write a double quote or a single one.

 

Before we had a XLIFF-Validation-module-specific syntax for literal ‘(‘, ‘)’ ‘”’, etc. but my understanding is that we don’t need it anymore because we don’t use any
 special characters like “()()” in the values.

Ps: Sorry I couldn’t join the call I was in another meeting.

Hi David and Yves,

 

Can you please help me understand what you mean by “using normal XML escaping syntax” ? If a user needs to specify a double or single quote, they will need to escape
 it according to XML specification 1.1 section 4.6 
http://www.w3.org/TR/xml11/#sec-predefined-ent. For example isPresent=”"”.

 

Thanks

Agreed, no need for extra escaping with the new cleaner syntax

I'm not sure I understand the escaping.

None of the new proposed notation seem to require the use of '(' or ')'.

So why we would need to even mention escaping?

One should enter the content of the attributes values like any other value, using normal XML escaping syntax when appropriate.

Or I'm missing something?

Thanks,
