- Currently, it does not appear to be realistic that all XML vocabularies tag localization-relevant information identical (e.g. all use the "term" tag for terms). One way to take care of diverse localization-relevant markup in localization environments is a mapping mechanism which maps localization-relevant markup onto a canonical representation (such as the Internationalisation Tag Set).

+ From a localization point of view, many XML vocabularies include markup which requires special attention, since the markup is associated with a specific type of content. Examples:

-  a. the localization tool may be able to render specific text styles in a standard way (e.g. increased font weight for bold)

- Since it is hardly imaginable that all content developers will be able
- to work with the same elements and attributes for this specific type of
- content, the ITS should include markup which allows people to specify
- the purpose of specific elements.
  
- Challenges arise for example from the fact that the 'source/original' vocabularies may vary widely wrt. the representation they choose for a specific data category (e.g. their markup related to graphics; see the longer discussion of this at [http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-i18n-its/2005AprJun/0096.html].
