Last sentence of the abstract: "ITS 2.0 focuses on HTML, XML-based formats in general, and can leverage processing based on the XML Localization Interchange File Format (XLIFF), as well as the Natural Language Processing Interchange Format (NIF)." -- tl;dr, it's not just for XML. The wiki generates HTML, and it's not a major task to add templates for ITS. Further, ITS is designed to be used inline, or as stand off annotation. It's possible to use ITS stand off to annotate even plain text, though the XPath to do so would be horrible. But using ITS annotation for documentation or language data is about the last thing I think of in relation to Apertium. At the most basic, it would be nice to have Apertium respect ITS instructions that say 'don't translate this part of the document', for example, or to skip sections that have been translated by another tool, or even to add basic provenance information. -- <Sefam> Are any of the mentors around? <jimregan> yes, they're the ones trolling you ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ November Webinars for C, C++, Fortran Developers Accelerate application performance with scalable programming models.
