  E-learning is becoming a global phenomenon. Learning Arabic (or Arabic
dialects), or learning one or several variants of Berber can be understood from
a very local perspective (in the Maghreb for instance) or in the wider
framework of the diaspora or even more broadly in a global world context (in
case a Japanese or a Russian learns Arabic and Berber). Resources for distance
learning must then be created and potentially used in any international
cultural and linguistic context. This implies that the resources created for
such perspective should cope with the general standards framework of the ISO /
IEC JTC1SC36, and even beyond the scope of this standardization instance.
