I am not sure I understand. Every network user application is a consumers of language support. If there is no W3C official position yet, why not to follow under IAB guidance (or to review) the charter I proposed yesterday, in an IETF way everyone could participate, and to have all these applications supported one shot in working on a linguistic ontology where each language instance would be documented by an ad hoc authoritative source. Otherwise it could not be the standard you wish. jfc _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
