"Could" being the operative word here. See, I don't understand where do you expect this info to actually come *from*. Somebody has to type in those thousands of meta-descriptors into the carrier file, after all. It might as easily be done with the extended SDF/FDS/whatever as with XLIFF, but resources ought to be dedicated beforehand. And so, in the case of hypothetical format switch resources ought to be dedicated "twice". That's why I strongly doubt the format switch at this juncture would facilitate the filling of the meta-info slots. --- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
