Sorry, I'm blind ... can you point me to the example?

Yes.

Thanks for checking, fixed.

No - at least I don't remember.

In Dublin we decided to follow this process
https://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/wiki/Implementation_Commitments
and to concentrate on the data categories listed here. You will see that
this is only a small subset of what is in the requirements document, but a
reality check (also of implementation commitments) naturally leads to a
small list. If you want to have externalPlaceholder, please issue a "call
for consensus" mail to the public list, as indicated in the wiki.

Note also that the draft to be published soon is a first public wd. We are
very likely to publish an update a few weeks later, another version in
September, October etc. Proposals for new data categories just need to be
on the table by mid July. By new I mean not totally new (we have these in
the requirements document), but new in the wiki page at
https://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/wiki/Implementation_Commitments

HTH,

Felix
