Thank you. So I think this means that if the files come with this part already populated
source="fr" target="it" source-culture="fr-FR" target-culture="it-IT"
and if this is essential information for the CMS using it then you do one of these two things:
If it was me I think I'd use 1. Once you have the process defined to manage the renaming with a script it'll be a trivial task, whilst the management of the multiple Studio projects would be a lot more time intensive.
Unfortunately these files don't use the xml:lang attribute at all so Studio cannot change these automatically for you.
Maybe someone else with more experience of dealing with these formats in practice has a better idea? Someone like Arnold from Kaleidoscope might also have a good solution for this. A while ago they supported COTI which might be relevant here and provide a better process for industry "standards" like Schema:

Thanks a lot Paul. I still wonder why "New Fragment" is visible in Studio. I will see with an xml expert at our office.

Perhaps you just need to make sure you have a parser rule that excludes the title element. The ST4 settings file, if this is what you are using, may just need tweaking for the particular content you have.
