AFNOR Activity Report to the 13th Plenary of SC22

AFNOR/CGTI/CN22 is the French mirror of JTC1/SC22. It gives AFNOR's
positions and casts the votes to the SC22, and hosts within different
working groups (CN22/GEx) the experts who work at national and/or
international level.
Current mirroring of JTC1/SC22 is as follows:
ISO        French
Group      mirror     focus    chairman
---------  ---------  -------  ----------------------
SC22       CN22                Mr Parquier (ILOG)
SC22/JSG   CN22/JAVA  JAVA     Mr Cédric Nicolas (Fi SYSTEM)
SC22/WG5   CN22/GE5   FORTRAN  Mr Lignelet (CNAM)
SC22/WG14  CN22/GE21  C9x C++  Mr Lextrait (AMADEUS)
SC22/WG16  CN22/GE16  LISP     Mr Parquier (ILOG)
SC22/WG21  CN22/GE21  C9x C++  Mr Lextrait (AMADEUS)
Secretariate of all groups is handled by Arnau Diquélou (AFNOR,
[email-masked] <mailto:[email-masked]> )
Non-mirrored groups are addressed by CN22, except SC22/WG22 which is
addressed by CN7/GE4 (in the French JTC1/SC7 mirror). Below is a summary of
activity during the passed year (Sept99-Aug00), ordered by WG.

SC22/JSG
CN22/GEJAVA is an expertize forum.  It reaches a wide audience, and has two
subb groups: embedded Java, and Java on servers (Entreprise Java).  GEJAVA
has recommended French votes on Java-related votes at SC22 and JTC1 level.
GEJAVA gathers over 150 individuals and companies, and held 15 meetings over
the passed year.
SC22/WG3
AFNOR has no mirror for WG3.
SC22/WG4
No mirror group, CN22/GE4 COBOL remains disbanded, due to lack of interested
parties.
SC22/WG5
CN22/GE5 FORTRAN met 3 times, works by email.  GE5 contributes by email to
WG5. Contributes to object-orientated Fortran, object orientation and to
Fortran-C binding.
SC22/WG9
The French mirror (CN22/GE9 ADA) was disbanded this year due to lack of
funding, and also very few interested industrial interests.
SC22/WG14
CN22/GE21 handles C.  Electronic contribution for time handlong.
Likely attendance to next WG14 meeting.
SC22/WG15
The French mirror group (CN22/GE15 POSIX) was disbanded in September 1997
due to lack of funding.
SC22/WG16
AFNOR supplies secretariate and ILOG supplies convenor of WG16.  No activity
this year, awaiting discussion of five-year revision of the standard.
SC22/WG17
CN22/GE17 activity could resume when "13211-1 Prolog General Core" is
revisited.
SC22/WG19
No group.
SC22/WG20
The French working group was disbanded this year due to lack of funding.
SC22/WG21
CN22/GE21 met three times over the period, and works by email.
GE21 contributes to WG21 defect reports writing and submission.
Attended all WG meetings.
