Hi,

the W3C Data Shapes Working Group would like to move its main deliverable

     http://w3c.github.io/data-shapes/shacl/

to CR status by the end of March. We would appreciate a review of its 
i18n aspects.

SHACL is an RDF based language to describe constraints on data models. 
The language is built for machines and has almost no user interface 
aspects. Execution typically happens "server-side" and the output is a 
list of constraint violations. The handling of strings in multiple 
languages is inherited from RDF. We use this RDF mechanism in a couple 
of places, e.g. sh:name and sh:message, to define user output in 
multiple languages. But SHACL doesn't do anything beyond the RDF 
standard in this respect. I did the i18n self-test and nothing else 
raised my attention.

Thanks
Holger
