3/ Work in Progress:
A. XLIFF 1.2 Specification
Committee Spec Process:
We've reached an important milestone - XLIFF 1.2 has finally been announced publicly. Congratulations and thanks for all the hard work, TC! The Official OASIS announcement of XLIFF 1.2 Public Review was made 14 July 2006. The review will last 60 days and ends 12 September. We'll need to monitor the comments list to ensure any issues submitted are dealt with by the TC. Volunteers for monitoring mailing lists will be solicited at the teleconference.
Along with the 1.2 public review was a call for IPR disclosure - any individual or organisation with any IPR claims relating to the work of the XLIFF TC should make their claims known: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200607/msg00011.html
Regarding affidavits:
The OASIS TC standards process requires that we submit 3 affidavits from Organisational members (ie., not individual or associate members) in order to submit the spec to OASIS standard process. The following is an acceptable template for such affidavits:
"I certify that is successfully using the XLIFF 1.2 specification, as approved for submission to the OASIS membership, consistent with the requirements of the OASIS Technical Committee Process."
Remaining related work:
Update whitepaper to summarise 1.2 revisions.
Update FAQ to summarise 1.2 revisions.
B. Open issues:
a. Translation of Voice XML Issues
UPDATE (5 Mar 2006) from Mat: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200603/msg00003.html
Archived Historical detail:
~ Open until resolution of namespace issue.
- Mat confirmed that this issue is currently on hold. He will raise again when it becomes an issue in the future.
Initial: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200403/msg00016.html
Update: http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200403/msg00017.html
b. Extending XLIFF with separate namespaces.
Some thought has been put into this issue but not yet even in draft form.
ACTION ITEM: Mat & Andzrej will work offline to advance this work.
c. (Closed - placeholder for revision of FAQ/Whitepaper) Best practice: should extraction process create target elements?
Topic proposed by Doug. Discussed in mailing list:
Initial Proposal (Doug): http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200603/msg00023.html
Comment (Bryan): http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200603/msg00025.html
Comment (Tony): http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200603/msg00035.html
Comment (Rodolfo): http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200603/msg00032.html
The optional meeting took place Thursday 1 June. The meeting notes are detailed here: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200606/msg00006.html
As a very brief summary, it was agreed that any XLIFF compliant tool should be capable of dealing with empty target elements, since it valid XLIFF. We did not feel it necessary to make any changes to the spec, but felt that an entry in the FAQ and/or whitepaper covering the topic would be helpful. We'll keep this item as a working agenda item until it's time to revise the FAQ / Whitepaper with this information.
d. (OPEN) XLIFF - DITA Best Practices:
Purpose of this discussion is to brainstorm what the TC can and should do to provide guidance to those who want to localise / translate DITA content, with potential recommended best practice centered around XLIFF as intermediate container.
Meeting was held on Thursday, 15 June -> http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200606/msg00014.html
RECOMMENDATION TO XLIFF TC:
The best practice of interchanging data between DITA and XLIFF is the same issue as how to interchange data XML and XLIFF in general... e.g., how to use XLIFF with ITS, XML:tm, etc. We suggest that the TC author profile documents similar to the other profiles we've developed, ie, HTML profile... in them we recommend which elements to use or avoid, skeleton file approach, transformation approach, other common problems and recommended solutions. Should address XLIFF ITS, XLIFF XML:TM, XLIFF DITA, maybe XLIFF Docbook.
4/XLIFF 1.2 Certification activities:
Ignite had their 2nd meeting last month - feedback and report from Reinhard if he is in attendance.
5/XLIFF Face to Face?
There's an OASIS Open Standards Day happening in Germany at the tekom conference (Europe's largest multi-lingual software trade show). The TC hasn't had a TC F2F in years, and it would be good timing to schedule a TC Face to Face to brainstorm what our next objectives and steps should be.
Date: 8-9 November 2006
Location: Wiesbaden, Germany
Venue: Rhein-Main-Hallen
Hosted by: Gesellschaft fr technische Kommunikation e.V. - tekom
Website: http://www.tceurope.org/conference/tcworld.htm
At the last meeting it was suggested this would be a good idea, but more details are required in order to justify travel, etc. Alternatively, a F2F can be held during the LRC XI Conference in Dublin, 25th-26th October 2006. (http://www.localisation.ie/resources/conferences/2006/index.htm)
We'll discuss options and preferences.
6/ Reports from liaisons involved with other standards groups:
A. W3C i18n
B. Oscar
C. Trans-WS
D. LRC
E: OASIS DITA Translation Subcommittee
7/Any Other Business
