You have admitted that you are not at all familiar with CLDR, but the people who have worked on CLDR are fully aware of the problems of getting agreed to localized expressions for all kinds of items.

Now maybe I am missing some issue here, so if the above suggested process is regarded as problematic I would like to address any problems that are felt to exist.

It does not.
In the context of this thread of the pdf document being published, published means published as in United Kingdom Law about Legal Deposit.
In the particular situation here, published refers to the fact that the pdf document was published in my family webspace by me, the publisher of the document.
I am the publisher of the document and also the author of the document.
