Comments on ballot for SC22 N 2063

The USNB would point out that the version of this PDAM document that is
subsequently registered for DAM ballot should be identical with the
version approved by the IEEE in order to comply with the approved
JTC 1/SC22 Synchronization Plan."

    COMMENTS ACCOMPANYING THE NEGATIVE VOTE FROM THE NETHERLANDS

From: Kees Pronk <[email-masked]>

..................................
N2063 PDAM to ISO/IEC 9945-2
IT - Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX)
Part 2: Shell and Utilities
Amendment 3: Protection and Control Interfaces
96-05-30, 
APPROVAL FOR THE REGISTRATION, 
NO WITH COMMENT FOR THE DRAFT.
......................................................
Comments:

We compared the functionality described in the 
Framework with the functionality in the current Security Evaluation 
Criteria, particularely Part 2 of the Common Criteria for IT Security 
Evaluation. This mapping worked fine for a great deal. Time did not 
permit to finalise this comparison. (Well, that points out one of the 
problems encountered: aspects of time-liness and synchronisation 
between domains.) 

The Netherlands requires that the 
relationship of the Framework with the security evaluation criteria
will be addressed, and suggests including a mapping in Annex A. 

Accepting this comment will turn our no-vote into a yes-vote.
