What is the SIB file format?
I'm going to answer my own subject question here in order to help others understand the newer SIB file format. (It took me a bit of searching to find out precisely what SIB is.)

Answer
  • SIB: This is a binary file format for storing external translations. This technology is specifically designed for using with TSILangRT component and allows loading and saving translations at run-time a few times faster than from/to .SIL files.

    SIL: External translations that store information in ASCII format.
