should I support/join in? is it germane to stuff I’m working on?). In general, I agree with Noji-san’s message and the idea that this represents a different qualitative and quantitative problem than “locales” is working. I think I would state the problem differently: distributed systems such as Web Services need an I18n architecture. [As opposed to “we need an I18n architecture which can be used for ……] As a result, I don’t think this actually requires a whole new locale model. Architecture, yes, but more along the lines of a protocol than an infrastructure. I fear that an infrastructure might not be accepted because it would not be simple enough (we would understand it in this forum, but the authors of SOAP et al aren’t thinking all that much about it, as near as I can tell. There is an expectation that xml:lang already does this, I believe.). Perhaps I am misreading the intentions and direction of the locales group in this, but I don’t see why I need the full range of locale data
