A use-case I'm considering for my application is to add in the document, which is generated for translation, the previous version of the concerned paragraph in the master language, as well as its translation in the target language. For this it would be necessary to link the two paragraph versions to the one that is to be translated. A possibility is a "locRef" attribute of type NMTOKENS that contains the IDs of the extra paragraphs or an alternative locInfoType "reference", in which case the locInfo attribute would contain those IDs. The extra paragraphs could then be wrapped in a local locInfo element or be tagged with the locInfo attribute of locInfoType "auxiliary". Those are just suggestions.]] 10139 1 fsasaki 2006-06-20 05:12:36 +0000 Added Werner to the CC list. 10695 2 fsasaki 2006-07-24 12:31:54 +0000 Hello Werner, This is a resonse from the ITS Working Group. We decided not to make any changes. This is also related to comments we received from the i18n core working group, see comment 12 at http://www.w3.org/International/reviews/0606-its/ . This issue is also related to http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3460 (renaming of "locInfo" to "locNote"), discussed at http://www.w3.org/2006/07/19-i18nits-minutes.html#item05 . Does our resolution reply to your concerns? If we don't here from you within 2 weeks, we will regard the issue as closed. Regards, Felix Sasaki. Wait: answer sent, wait respone. 11034 3 werner.donne 2006-08-07 10:16:29 +0000 Hi Felix, Sorry for the late reply. I was out for two weeks. I agree with the resolution. My proposal was in fact trying to encode a new type of data in an existing data category. It is indeed much better to be explicit about a new requirement and give it a proper place when it appears to be valuable enough. Best regards, Werner. 11400 4 fsasaki 2006-09-06 14:16:08 +0000 Closed. Commentor satisified. 12087 5 fsasaki 2006-09-27 12:37:47 +0000 Summary: The Working Group declined to change the specification. In addition, the name of the data category was changed to "localization note", to clarify its intention. See also issue http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3460 .
