[db-wg] Implementation of POEM object

Arife,

i'm finding this discussion rather anglo-centric. was any consideration 
given to a "language" descriptor in discussion of this object.

of course the official language of ripe ncc is english, but it's a bit 
harsh to expect non-english speakers to contribute good verse in other than 
their native language...
