The subject DIS is enclosed for action and information as indicated. This document is distributed for ISO/IEC JTC 1 final letter ballot under the FAST-TRACK PROCEDURE. The U.S. TAG is required to recommend a vote for the National Body.
ACTION #1 - Recommendation for JTC 1 TAG
The committee is to coordinate and develop the U.S. recommended position to the JTC 1 TAG for approval for submission to ISO/IEC JTC 1. The position must be submitted in a format consistent with the guidelines specified by the JTC 1 Secretariat in JTC 1 N 5348.
The position options are: approve; approve with general, technical and/or editorial comments; disapprove for reasons which are to be explained in an attached paper with recommended wording which, if accepted, would change the U.S. vote to one of approval.
IMPORTANT
The committee should return the U.S. recommendation to the JTC 1 TAG Administrator for approval by a 30-day letter ballot no later than March 15, 2001 so that, if necessary, a 10-day reconsideration ballot may be conducted and the U.S. vote forwarded to ANSI by to the JTC 1 closing date of May 2, 2001.
ACTION #2 - Notification to NCITS
The committee should notify the NCITS Secretariat if this standard is unsuitable for adoption as an American National Standard. A vote of majority approval accompanied by comments specifying the reasons for non-adoption is required. The recommendation for non-adoption should be sent simultaneously with the recommendation for the JTC 1 TAG. NCITS will adopt the ISO/IEC Standard unless notified, see NCITS Adoption Policy. The initiation for adoption will begin at the DIS stage.
