The document provides an overview of the XLIFF 2.0 standard for exchanging localization data. It discusses issues with the previous XLIFF 1.2 standard and how XLIFF 2.0 addresses these through a modular design with a small required core and optional modules. It also outlines industry adoption of XLIFF 2.0 and planned future versions like 2.1 that will add features like advanced validation and support for ITS 2.0.
Is XLIFF 2.0 A Successful Evolution? (FEISGILTT 2014 Keynote)Chase Tingley
This is an expanded version of a short talk I previously gave last fall about why localization standards always fail. This time, I applied some of the same analysis to the problems encountered in the past by XLIFF 1.2, as well as the ways in which the upcoming XLIFF 2.0 standard hopefully addresses them. It also discusses new challenges to adoption and includes gratuitous pictures of mole rats.
This talk was the keynote at FEISGILTT 2014 in Dublin.
Briefing on OASIS XLIFF OMOS TC 20160121Jamie Clark
The briefing provided an overview of the XLIFF OMOS TC, which aims to develop an abstract object model and JSON serialization for the XLIFF 2.0 standard to improve interoperability. The TC is chaired by David Filip and has members from various organizations. It plans to deliver an object model for XLIFF 2.x, a JSON version called JLIFF 1.0, and work on a new version of TMX with an inline data model consistent with XLIFF 2.0. The TC uses a non-assertion IPR mode and invites participation from stakeholders in multilingual content and localization.

Building the Future Together: AtoM3, Governance, and the Sustainability of Op...Artefactual Systems - AtoM
Slides accompanying a presentation given by Dan Gillean on June 7th, 2018 at Open Repositories 2018, held in Bozeman, MT.
Access to Memory is a web-based open source application for standards based description and access. AtoM was first released in 2008 and much of the codebase is now relying on deprecated frameworks and libraries – and at the same time, new standards and technologies are changing how our profession approaches description and access. Currently Artefactual Systems, a Canadian based company, uses a services model to support the project. Artefactual is looking ahead to AtoM3, and considering building a linked data driven platform for archival description and access. As we consider AtoM's next generation, we are also examining governance and maintenance models to sustain the project and better empower our user community as Artefactual wasn't originally intended to be AtoM's organizational home. This presentation will offer some thoughts on existing open source project governance models, challenges, and possibilities for the future. How do we ensure community engagement and project sustainability over time?
The document discusses Opencast Matterhorn, an open source lecture capture and distribution system.

Editor's Notes
Reach implemented Core, Metadata, and Translation Candidates to encapsulate Resource, Metadata, and Recycling information contained in Reach.
We will provide an interface for other teams and possibly even suppliers to add their own modules and extensions
Glossary does not meet the needs for complex Term Studio data so Reach implemented Metadata for terminology. Will look at future TBX mapping.
Resource Data and Format Style implementation may be driven by future business needs
Size and Length Restriction, Change Tracking, and Validation are not currently implemented since Reach has its own change tracking and validation mechanisms. These modules may have more application for supplier-side tools.
OM=Object Mode, PCL=portable class library, MAT = multilingual app toolkit
Utilities
Extensibility: Customers can extended the Utilities to convert to and from and validate other formats besides xml.
Reach
Autotranslation: Recover ID shifts from extraction and provide MT.
