Comment Summary (condensed from N1393 text)

Austailia: 2 pages, 5 areas of comment
	UPE component not as rigorous, nor as well integrated into main doc.

	Historical Anachronisms maybe poor: eg. ls -1 & 512 byte units
		as opposed to -k

	Some utilities are overly specified & w/poor precision (eg. mailx)

	Review of document for consistency of approach & rigour of value

	Timer resolution of 1 second seems too low

Austria:
	[None seem to have been distributed]


Canada: (one comment, one page)
	table 217, pg 116 for Utility Limit Minimum Value suggests an
	LC_Collate "# of weights" value of 2; no known languages work
	with this small of value (7 is required for Canada).

Denmark: (5 comments, 5 pages)
	1 - Localedef "copy"
	2 - Layout [18 point type for Section start]
	3 - correct/replace Danish locale
	4 - replace-after notion
	5 - symbolic elipses

Japan: (46 specific comments, 31 pages)
	all related to Internationanlization/Byte/Character term useage

Netherlands: (11 comments (or so); 2 pages)
	Definition concerns; accept definitions from SC2:
	  Character
	  Coded Character Set
	  Graphic Character Set
	  Graphic Symbol

        replace GLYPH with graphic symbol

	affects:
	  2.2.2.29 "character"
	  2.2.2.27 "byte"

	concerned about <character-names> terms, move to seperate section

	pg 43: stateful codings are obsolete

	pg 44: meaning of "glyph", not in SC2 nor defined in 9945-2
