[xtm-wg] Re: Fixing language.xtm and country.xtm

Lars,

you are saying "we".
Iwas silent lately on this list -
Part of the reason is that I do not anylonger
know who are "we" ... (shadow disappeared :-(()
What is the subject indicator?
Do you suggest that core PSI-s
should be authored by "we" who does not
have a PSI itself?
Hope that Montreal meeting will resolve this issue.
