[tei-council] proof of concept of i18n work

[Kevin Hawkins]

Below Sebastian notes that he hasn't touched <valDesc> on the specs.  I 
think there are two paths forward:

a) Add @versionDate to each <valDesc> (in addition to <desc>).  That way 
we'll be consistent in using @versionDate on all parts of our specs.

b) Merge <valDesc>s into <desc> and just do away with them.

My preference is (a).
