Re: Use Cases

Hi Rob, all,
You may want to consider work on annotation in the Internationalization 
Activity, in particular the work of the MLW-LT WG which recently 
completed the ITS2.0 recommendation: http://www.w3.org/TR/its20/

There is a set of IS2.0 use cases based on current implementations 
available at:
https://www.w3.org/International/its/wiki/Use_cases_-_high_level_summary
and an older set of requirements at:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/WD-its2req-20120524/

ITS2.0 addresses specific use cases related to the internationalisation 
and localisation of HTML5 and XML content. It therefore specifically 
addresses the annotation of the _textual_ content of such content, 
rather than annotating non-text nodes of the resulting DOM tree. 
However, to handle the many practical aspects, especially in relation to 
minimising the impact of annotation on the document, ITS possess a 
sophisitcated set of annotation patterns to overcome some of the 
limitation of third party annotations of DOM parsable documents, 
including a mapping to standoff meta-data in RDF. These patterns are 
described a bit more explicitly (compared to in the Recommendation) in a 
recent paper available at:
https://www.w3.org/International/its/wiki/images/4/4a/Locfoc13-paper36-cr.pdf

I'd be very interest in hearing thoughts from the group on this work and 
its relation to the annotation use case draft.

Regards,
Dave
