Subject: Re: [election-services-comment] Re-send: Internationalization odOptionsList proposal



Could someone please provide an example on how to internationalize a 
ReferendumOption in for instance 3 languages? Even with the new 
definitions I can't still see how could be the internationalization 
addressed. Of course I was aiming not to make extensive usage of the 
<xs:any> tags.

Thanks,
