XLIFF
[Article still incomplete]
The XML Localisation Interchange File Format (XLIFF) is a format developed by a group of localization customers, localization suppliers, and tools vendors, including: Oracle, Novell, IBM/Lotus, Sun MicroSystems, Alchemy Software, Berlitz, Moravia-IT, and the RWS Group. XLIFF final draft of version 1.0 was ready at the end of May 2001. XLIFF was moved under the aegis of OASIS in December 2001.
XLIFF is a format to store extracted text and carry the data from one step to another in the localization process.
It follows the same principles as OpenTag, and borrows also a few ideas from TMX. For example, to specify in-line codes XLIFF supports both the placeholder OpenTag's method and TMX's encapsulation system.
