Hi Jean-Christophe,

OmegaT does not require XLIFF to translate ODF. And you still get a
TMX memory from the process. The TMX can later be used for other
parts of the localization process.

I seem to recall that OmegaT doesn't handle numbering styles very well,
or at least it didn't when I last tried it a few months ago. This was
the real blocker for me with regard to OmegaT , but maybe it is just my
inexperience with using it.

If that is the case then it is not related to your lack of experience with the tool but to a bug in 
the code. I am not experiencing that although I use OmegaT everyday on relatively complex ODT/DOCX 
documents.

By the way, I am not trying to push the use of OmegaT.

I am just saying that XLIFF is good in some use cases, mostly when you have a back-end process 
where you can extract TM data and inject them into the XLIFF (a la PO's fuzzies, but better). When 
you don't have access to such a process, then it is better to work directly in the source file.

Especially since in the end you'll get the same TM data.
