Subject: INCITS EB Requests for V1 Review/Input on Ecma Project Editor Proposed Disposition of Comments on DIS 29500 - Due by January 29,  2008 - Notification of US Delegation to February 2008 DIS 29500 BRM in Geneva - Action Item a08.052 from the January 2008 INCITS EB Meeting
From: Jennifer Garner, INCITS Secretariat



At the January 2008 INCITS Executive Board meeting, the US delegation to the February 25-29, 2008 DIS 29500 BRM was approved:
Additionally, I was instructed to convey the following EB requests for V1 consideration:
The INCITS/V1 Chairman is asked to have the V1 committee conduct the following reviews and provide the requested V1 input to the INCITS Secretariat by January 29, 2008 for consideration at the February 12-13, 2008 DIS 29500 US Delegation Meeting:    
  • As a first priority, the EB asks V1 to review the Ecma Project Editor's proposed Disposition of Comments on DIS 29500 (distributed earlier this week) to determine whether or not the proposed disposition satisfactorily addresses US comments (V1-N2007-066 US-Comments_Final_Comments_List.xls) and the two NB comments (V1-N2007-70 Ballot on Foreign Comments Results.pdf) contained in in080021.
  • The EB then asks V1 to review the Ecma Project Editor proposed Disposition of Comments on DIS 29500 (distributed earlier this week) against all other NB comments (http://v1.incits.org/v1htm/DIS29500BRM_Materials/DIS29500-2008-002-tagged.pdf) to determine their acceptability to the  US and the impact of their resolution to the US comments.
  • The US must work towards having a position on each of the recommended disposition comments and that position should be captured in the delegate's instructuions.  The EB asks that these US delegate's instructions be developed in a manner that addresses the disposition of US comments first and that the processing of international comments be handled in the following level of priority:  major technical, minor technical and editorial.
