Re: [PLS1.0] i18n comment: Why one lexicon per language?

Issue R103-19

Proposed Classification: Clarification / Typo / Editorial 

Resolution: Defer

We imagine that a future version of PLS will be multilingual. However,
for the first version, we'd prefer to defer this request. 

We believe that an implementation of a monolingual lexicon is simpler
and perhaps more efficient. SSML and SRGS both support multiple lexicons
for defining pronunciations for multiple languages. Para 5 in section
4.1 of PLS 1.0 LCWD [1] already says this. If you feel this is not
clear, please suggest alternative wording. 

Please indicate whether you are satisfied with the VBWG's resolution,
whether you think there has been a misunderstanding, or whether you wish
to register an objection.
