The following document received 1 comment at the JTC 1 level:

N 8120 - SC 22 Request for the Free Availability of ISO/IEC TR 18037

The National Body of Japan submits the comments below on JTC 1 N 8120, SC 22
Request for the Free Availability of ISO/IEC TR 18037.

================================================
Comments from Japanese National Body on JTC 1 N 8120

It is necessary to state the rationale why ISO/IEC TR 18037 should be freely
available.  We cannot automatically approve requests without any
justification. 

Japanese National Body investigated the criteria on free availability and
found that JTC 1 Sendai Resolution 32, stated in JTC 1 N 5448 (1998-06-05),
became ineffective. JTC 1 N7269  (2003-10-28), "Proposed New IEC Criteria
for Availability Free of Charge on the WWW of JTC 1 Publications", and JTC 1
N7604 (2004-09-27), "ISO Council Resolution
6/2204 Making JTC 1 Standards Available on the World Wide Web", include the
current common criteria between ISO and IEC.

ISO/IEC TR 18037, C Extensions to Support Embedded Processors, is a Type
2 TR. JTC 1 Sendai Resolution 32 recommended that Technical Reports type 1,
2 and 3 should be available free of charge on the WWW but the current common
criteria allow only Type 3 TR.

These documents are now forwarded to ITTF for further processing.
