Publication of first working draft on web services internationalization

Dear Web Services Coordination Group,

This mail is to inform you that the i18n core working group [1] has  
published a first working draft on web services internationalization.
The document describes enhancements to SOAP messaging to provide  
internationalized and localized operation via locale and international  
preference negotiation. These mechanisms can be used to accommodate a wide  
variety of development models for international usage. WS-I18N also  
provides a general-purpose mechanism for associating a "locale policy"  
with messages. It is designed to be extensible (e.g. support multiple  
international preferences and locale identifier models).

We would appreciate your feedback very much.

Best regards,

Felix Sasaki (team contact of the i18n core wg)
