-Further discussion between me and Martin suggests that in fact 10.6.1 should stay where it is (this is the section of the msDescription chapter that talks about documenting the languages used in a text, irrespective of their transcription) but that it would also be desirable to have a single place where all aspects of the use of languages, characters, scripts, glyphs, writing modes would be encompassed. The directionality draft material would go into this, but it's not clear where such a unified chapter belongs. [[User: Lou]]

−	~~along with the transform property from CSS Transforms.~~
−
−	To convey this in MediaWiki, I suggest using the Cite.php mechanisms: <ref> and then <references/> at the end. I would change it myself, but I'm unclear on whether "along with the transform property" is part of the footnote as well.

+NOTE: At the Council meeting in Oxford in November, it was decided that this new section should be incorporated into a rewritten Chapter 5 (currently named "Languages and Character Sets"), along with section 10.6.6 from Chapter 10 ("Languages and Writing Systems").
