Do you here mean the 'translate' boolean attribute of <group>, <trans-unit> and <bin-unit>? I couldn't find any 'translated' attribute in the specification. </PRE> </BLOCKQUOTE> You are right, "translated" doesn't exist. <BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE> <PRE> The 'translate' attribute can be set to 'no' to protect a <trans-unit> from translation. E.g. in tools such as Catalyst, these entries are read-only. </PRE> </BLOCKQUOTE> Same thing happens with Heartsome's XLIFF editor. <BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE> <PRE> So there is no relation between the 'translate' and 'approved' attribute. </PRE> </BLOCKQUOTE> I believe that Josep was looking for an alternative way to indicate that final approval depends on two people, the translator and the reviewer. He also mentioned the "state" attribute of <target>, which could be used for that. Unfortunately, the "state" attribute can be set to any value by the translation tool, making it unusable for what Josep wants.
