DetailsMy format proposal combines langv1 with langv2 and you get this format for one string.
startphrase id: (string id) desc: (string description) user: source: target 1: (target 1 string) target 2: (target 2 string) dest: target 1: (target 1 string) target 2: (target 2 stringz) voice: target 1: (target 1 string) target 2: (target 2 string) endphrase I have examined both langv1 and langv2 files and noticed that langv1 is easier to edit.

I don't know about you, but I would find this easier to edit for someone that knows nothing about tags/html/xml.
