#Standards - A gap in plural support

#multilingweb
When you can speak only for fifteen minutes, there is so much you  do not have the time for. Issues that are relevant, things the conference is meant to address.

When I wrote about plural, a subject that is actively discussed on translatewiki.net, Niklas told me about his frustration that his inventory plural rules in various databases had not resulted in anything at all.

As the Multilingual Web conference explicitly asks to identify where standards and best practices cover our needs, this is certainly one that is relevant to us.


As the hashtag of the conference will surely find its way to twitter, this can be seen as an experiment; will people who will go to the conference see this and will there be some follow up at the conference.
Thanks,

PS Niklas will be at the conference as well
