If it is the latter, we need a mechanism that describes a document set.]] - === Issue/Challenge === + === Challenge/Issue === In order to most effectively re-use translated text where content is re-used (either across update versions or across deliverables) it is necessary to have a unique and persistent id associated with the element. @@ -32, +32 @@ === Notes === - The xml:id attribute defined here [http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-id/] may be a mean to carry the unique identifier. Note however, that xml:id is unique within a document, not necessarily within a set of docments. + The xml:id attribute defined here [http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-id/] (Currently only as a Candidate Recommendation) may be a mean to carry the unique identifier. Note however, that xml:id is unique within a document, not necessarily within a set of docments. - - [[RI I think it's worth recommending xml:id rather than id, but note that it is not yet a finalised spec.]] [[RI Note that cross document uniqueness is not difficult to achieve if we use URIs, where the in-document id is a fragment identifier. When we originally wrote this requirement we hadn't thought much about URIs as a permanent unique reference for any document.]]
