Sorry to be late with my comments but I have been away from the office most of October. I only have a few general comments. The first has to do with the availability of actual documents on-line. From the discussions of the JTC1 Ad Hoc on IT, it appears that access to most of our documents is likely to have to be restricted to participants in the standards process. That doesn't mean that they can't be on-line, but it does mean that access will be defined and restricted. Decisions have not yet been made, but proposals are supposed to be ready for circulation and LB in JTC1 around mid-November. We will distribute the proposals for your information as soon as we can. (I argued for more openness in commenting on a first draft of a recommendation but at least one NB wanted it even more restrictive - stay tuned.) In any case, we will ultimately have to be consistent with whatever JTC1 decides. In section 14 on future meetings, I think we should note that meetings are not open to the public and that only designated representatives from National Bodies or liaison organizations can participate. Interested parties can be encouraged to contact their NBs. In this regard, I think the meeting information should be limited to dates and city - no need to include full details for people who can't come. Bob Follett
