It is just my guess but W3C procedures mandate official documents to be English? In reality if there are conflicts between two documents probably almost always the one in Japanese is correct as it is the original work. I think it's more related to the fact that the goal of JLReq is to have information about Japanese typesetting available to those who do not speak Japanese. The desired outcome is a document in English. —Florian
