I may be out of touch with publishing terminology, but I was intrigued to
read in this post the reference to 'multiple-species publications'. I've
heard of requirements to write documents using spelling and terminology that
can be easily understood by readers from other countries, but this is the
first time I've heard of writing for other species!

Maybe I should start trying out my documents on my cats...
