    <p>The technology described in this document - the <em>Internationalization Tag Set
    (ITS) 2.0</em> - enhances the foundation to integrate automated processing of human
    language into core Web technologies. ITS 2.0 bears many commonalities with is
    predecessor, <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/REC-its-20070403/">ITS 1.0</a> but
    provides additional concepts that are designed to foster the automated creation and
    processing of multilingual Web content. ITS 2.0 focuses on HTML, XML-based formats in
    general, and can leverage processing based on the XML Localization Interchange File
    Format (XLIFF), as well as the Natural Language Processing Interchange Format
    (NIF).</p>
