Hi all, sorry for being late in providing this text. Cheers dF Usage by Localization workflow managers Localization Workflow managers setting up new automated workflows originating in Content and Web Management Systems ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Owners of ITS decorated content want their internationalization and localization related metadata to survive the roundtrip. Localization workflow managers should pay attention to roundtripping the ITS data categories introduced by their customers up in the tool chain. There is also potential to interpret generic mark up in terms of ITS on extraction, eventually introduce relevant XML or HTML versions, or XLIFF mappings of ITS data categories during the localization roundtrip. Categories like “translate” should drive extraction of localizable context, terminology and disambiguation markup should be passed onto human and machine translators, proper interpretation of directionality mark up is a must for sound handling of bidirectional content using Arabic and Hebrew scripts. Localization Workflow managers hooking up their existing automated workflows to Content and Web Management Systems ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The above considerations are especially valid when hooking up existing localization workflows upwards into the tool chain. Existing workflows should introduce mappings of ITS data categories used in source content, so that the metadata flow is not broken throughout the content life cycle, of which localization workflow is a critical value adding segment.
