The subject DTR is attached for action and information as indicated. This document is distributed for ISO/IEC JTC 1 final letter ballot. The U.S. TAG is required to recommend a vote for the National Body.
ACTION #1 - Recommendation for U.S. Vote
The committee is to coordinate and develop the U.S. recommended position to INCITS for approval for submission to ISO/IEC JTC 1. The position must be submitted in a format consistent with the guidelines specified by the JTC 1 Secretariat in JTC 1 N 5348.
The position options are: approve; approve with general, technical and/or editorial comments; disapprove for reasons which are to be explained in an attached paper with recommended wording which, if accepted, would change the U.S. vote to one of approval, or abstain.
Any comments developed in support of the U.S. position should be presented in the enclosed ISO Comments Template document.
IMPORTANT
The committee should return the U.S. recommendation to the INCITS Secretariat for approval by a 30-day letter ballot no later than March 2, 2006 so that, if necessary, a 10-day reconsideration ballot may be conducted and the U.S. vote forwarded to ANSI by the JTC 1 closing date of April 17, 2006.
ACTION #2 - Recommendation for INCITS Adoption of a Type-3 Technical Report
The committee should notify the INCITS Secretariat if this technical report is unsuitable for adoption as an ANSI Technical Report. A vote of majority approval accompanied by comments specifying the reasons for non-adoption is required. The recommendation for non-adoption should be sent simultaneously. INCITS will adopt an ISO/IEC Type-3 Technical Report unless notified, see Section 5.1, INCITS RD2, Organization and Procedures.
