In principal, I think that would be an excellent idea. Jeremy, please could you suggest a statement of purpose for the meeting and objectives, and possibly an agenda. Do we do this a small subgroup from RDFCore meeting with the i18n folks or as the whole WG. Who from RDFCore would like to participate in such a discussion on RDF conformance to charmod? Misha, can you suggest times when it might be possible to meet.
