The knights should have checked again whether they had packed everything. Now it turns out that the parchment listing the important characteristics of a knight's helmet in all languages is missing. Even though it was specially commissioned from Dr Translatus. Thankfully, one OSH lady had very wisely made a copy and kept it safe, and is now able to produce it.
Language is an important aspect in standardization. European standardization work is conducted almost entirely in English. In some countries, draft standards and sometimes also working documents are translated into the national language; CEN however publishes draft standards only in three languages: English, French and German. DIN is responsible for the German translation. In order for stakeholders to submit their comments as effectively as possible at European level, it is ad-vantageous for them to work directly on the English documents.
