RE: ITS Mapping Update - What is the plan?

Hi Yves,

We are considering to further develop our ITS 2.0 implementation project aimed at visualization of content and ITS metadata - this time for XLIFF 2.0 content. I asked the developer to look at the ITS 2.0 mapping schema for XLIFF 2.0 (http://www.w3.org/International/its/wiki/XLIFF_2.0_Mapping), and he has found several inconsistences and/or omissions. So my question is:

Do you think it is worth for us to participate in further development and debugging of the current ITS-to-XLIFF 2.0 mapping specification (if this is still in progress) - OR- Does it make sense to wait until ITS 2.0 is implemented as XLIFF 2.x Module (hopefully, in near future)?

Subject: ITS Mapping Update

Hi all,

(CCing the XLIFF TC for information, as the idea is to make this into a module)

An update on the ITS mapping for XLIFF 2:

As discussed in Dublin last month and in this morning ITS-IG call, we are looking at classifying the ITS data categories into several classes:

- the one for which there is a direct XLIFF mapping (so nothing to implement),
- the ones partially covered in XLIFF,
- the ones without equivalent in XLIFF
- the ones that are not metadata (and therefore not really to be 'mapped')
- and several ones not mapped yet

The latest draft is here:
https://www.w3.org/International/its/wiki/XLIFF_2.0_Mapping

Feedback and suggestions welcome, especially on the data categories not mapped yet, like Directionality, Storage Size, etc.


Cheers,
-yves
