OASIS XML Localisation Interchange File Format (XLIFF) TC

Hi all, While looking at the proposal for the processing expectations for both <metadata> and custom namespaces, I got a question regarding <metadata>: Can a <metadata> element have two or more <meta> elements that have the same value for the 'type' attribute? For example: <metadata> <meta type='myType'>My value 1</meta> <meta type='myType'>My value 2</meta> </metadata> I'm asking because this has implications for the implementations (e.g. can some type of hash-map be used or not). I would go for NOT allowing duplicated type values, to keep things simple. Cheers, -yves

Hi, Not allowing duplicated "type" attributes is fine for me.
