Subject: Recommendations to withdraw three INCITS projects

Barbara,

At the December 2007 meeting, M1 approved the following recommendations to
the INCITS EB:

a. Project withdrawals  based on M1.3 recommendations:

1. Revision of INCITS 379-2004 ­ Iris Image Format for Data Interchange
Approval included in consent agenda M1/07-0728rev (attached):
(Mayer-Splain, Valencia) 23-0-0-37
See draft minutes M1/07-0734 (attached) agenda items 1.5.2 (consent agenda)
and 4.4.1

2. INCITS 423.10 Conformance Testing Methodology Standard for Biometric
Data Interchange Format Standards – Part 10: Conformance Testing, Hand
Geometry
Approval included in consent agenda M1/07-0728rev (Mr. Mayer-Splain, Mrs.
Valencia): 23-0-0-37
See draft minutes M1/07-0734 (attached) agenda items 1.5.2 (consent agenda)
and 4.13.1

b. Project withdrawal. Action taken directly by M1 (not in consent agenda)
since M1.3’s motion on approval of the recommendation did not meet the
approval criteria.

INCITS 423.6 Conformance Testing Methodology Standard for Biometric Data
Interchange Format Standards – Part 6: Conformance Testing, Iris Image Data
Motion for withdrawal (Mr. Mayer-Splain, Mr. Mahlmeister). The motion
passed 20-0-2-37. The roll-call vote is shown in the table under 4.12.1.
See draft minutes M1/07-0734 (attached) agenda.

Just in case you need it, I attached the 2-week agenda of M1 where these
actions were included (see 4.4, 4.12 and 4.13 of M1/07-0671 - attached).

Please let me know if you need anything else.
Thank you
Fernando
