Subject: Re: [xliff] context-group proposal




From: John Reid <JREID@novell.com>

I propose the following purpose attribute values: 

- location, The context-group is used to specify where the term was found in the translatable source. Thus, it is not displayed.

- match,  Specifies that the context information should be used during translation memory lookups. Thus, it is not displayed.

- information, Specifies that the context is informational in nature, indicating for example, how a term should be translated. Thus, should be displayed to anyone editing the XLIFF.

Combinations of these values can be made via the standard mechanism of XLIFF. Thus, purpose="location;match" would provide both location and TM matching contextual information. The schemas for this is below.


xliff-1-1.xsd
?-------------
<xsd:complexType name="ElemType_context-group">
 <xsd:sequence maxOccurs="unbounded">
  <xsd:element name="context" type="xlf:ElemType_context"/>
 </xsd:sequence>
 <xsd:attribute name="name" type="xsd:string" use="required"/>
 <xsd:attribute name="purpose" type="xsd:string" use="optional"/>
 <xsd:attribute name="crc" type="xsd:NMTOKEN" use="optional"/>
</xsd:complexType>
