"translation" -- i don't see how it can become any more concise without losing meaning of what's actually going on. and that can include transliterations because transliteration is a translation that is literal.
Transliteration is the transscribing of text from one script to another, and has nothing to do with translation whatsoever. And this release status, from what I understand of the proposal, is also intended for things like transcoding (the process of transferring text from one code or cypher to another: in this case, from computer codepages a theoretical client computer cannot use into one that it can [the cannoical example in this thread is Unicode to ISO-Latin-1]). _______________________________________________ Musicbrainz-style mailing list Musicbrainz-style@lists.musicbrainz.org http://lists.musicbrainz.org/mailman/listinfo/musicbrainz-style
