    we've known about doc for a while

    felix raised an unsent comment

    when asked to review this we were buried

    inclination to grumble a little

    addison: fully agree

    richard: copy plh and ralph on that
    ... nothing from chair or editors
    ... request was kind of off the record
    ... copy the 4 chairs

    <scribe> ACTION: addison: write an email objecting to lack of
    I18N review and review coordination and pointing out that there
    are issues that should be addressed [recorded in
    [28]http://www.w3.org/2016/07/14-i18n-minutes.html#action01]

      [28] http://www.w3.org/2016/07/14-i18n-minutes.html#action01]

    <trackbot> Created ACTION-539 - Write an email objecting to
    lack of i18n review and review coordination and pointing out
    that there are issues that should be addressed [on Addison
    Phillips - due 2016-07-21].

    david: adding the I18N later doesn't work

    addison: own up to fact we knew about document
    ... process failure, not an attack
    ... spec may not be "best practices" at the end of the day

    richard: could forward felix's comment

      [30] https://github.com/w3c/i18n-activity/issues/19

    richard: not just multiple languages, need to provde info about
    language even if just a single language

    addison: not entirely happy with that formulation

    <scribe> ACTION: addison: forward dwbp issue reformulation to
    richard this afternoon (14 Jul) [recorded in
    [31]http://www.w3.org/2016/07/14-i18n-minutes.html#action02]

      [31] http://www.w3.org/2016/07/14-i18n-minutes.html#action02]

    <trackbot> Created ACTION-540 - Forward dwbp issue
    reformulation to richard this afternoon (14 jul) [on Addison
    Phillips - due 2016-07-21].

    richard: take a resolution that people should push their
    comments through rather than hoping they will get done

    addison: review pendings each week as part of radar?

    <r12a> [36]https://github.com/w3c/activitystreams/issues/335

      [36] https://github.com/w3c/activitystreams/issues/335

    name: "string"

    richard: 1. figure out what to do about json-ld
    ... 2. what to about activity stream

    set @language in context, any items that vary in language
    SHOULD use a map

    other issue is bidi, current proposed solution is to hack with
    markup or use controls

    don't think there is @direction in @context

    <r12a> [37]https://github.com/w3c/activitystreams/issues/336
