* Draft Status
Andrew reported that the draft has been submitted to IEEE for
approval and will be submitted to the September Revcom meeting.
He reported that the ISO editors required various minor changes to the
document, such as no "draft" watermark, no line numbers and that the pdf
be unlocked. A revised unlocked pdf has been sent to ISO. Sally Seitz
has submitted this on to ISO.
There was some concern that the document at ISO will differ. Andrew noted
that we will try to remedy that for final publication as this version is
just for ballot.
We are still waiting to hear when the ISO ballot will commence.
* Aardvark
We picked up on the aardvark reports, which are located at
