Hi Yves, Shaun, It would be great if we could capture the assumption under which we think the targetPointer proposal should work in order to guide potential implementors.

Extracting the source strings is already possible with ITS 1.0, but generating these files from a template and a bunch of translations isn't really possible in the general sense. What I'm doing right now works for the formats I work with, but I can easily come up with examples where it would fail. I can go into details if others want to discuss this case. > > -- > Shaun > > On Wed, 2012-05-09 at 10:51 -0600, Yves Savourel wrote: >> Hi Shaun, >> >> The multilingual use case would probably require a slightly different >> solution (than the solution the IG drafted).
