Action Items
<IrfanA> Alan: I was asked to write down on internationalization.
<IrfanA> Alan: I will send it out initially for suggestions and add it in github based upon feedback
<IrfanA> Alan: reading his draft...
<IrfanA> PaulG: data-ssml attr and how do we interact with lang. do you agree that we do not need voice-lang attribute
<IrfanA> mhakkinen: somewhere between we added things which were not part of early proposal.
<IrfanA> PaulG: its confusing to have both ssml-lang and html-lang..
<IrfanA> PaulG: some dialect are distinct and dont know how to address them.
<IrfanA> janina: this problem exists everywhere. but it matters particularly in literature. do we have any way to simulate it.
<IrfanA> mhakkinen: think it needs different expertise. in finish there are several languages .
<IrfanA> janina: we can tell internationalization to re-think about it to solve this problem.
<IrfanA> janina: I may have an action item here. It needs to be end up a github issue for internationalization. I will find some examples from literature
<IrfanA> PaulG: some people would say that simulation is never going to that good.
<IrfanA> PaulG: look forward to see a github issue. will update our document to make any release.
