No new activity to report. 9505-02 Canada - Provide collation weight question to the US again. Done. Rather than re-provide previous documents dating back two or more years, a copy of the draft Canadian Ordering Standard CAN/CSA Z243.4.1 was provided to Barry Needham. 9505-40 All Member Bodies - If any serious defects are discovered in the document in 9505-39, notify Lowell Johnson directly prior to June 5. The US may use these comments as a basis for not taking the document forward as a US standard. No serious defects were discovered. 9505-41 RIN - Develop a draft WG15 position on ISO 10646 impact on POSIX standards for distribution to Member bodies by July 1 1995 (open action item 9310-46, 9405-22, 9410-05). If this is not completed by July 1, Canada has offered to write this report. Canada is not satisfied that the document JTC1/SC22/WG15 N583 "Use of IS 10646 in POSIX Interfaces", addresses the issue of the impact of 10646 on the POSIX standards and intends to write a alternate report as offered, for presentation at (or prior to) the next meeting (May 1996). 9505-47 Member bodies - Review documents listed in 9410- 26, (open action item 9410-27) Done. P1003.2b/D10, P1003.1i/D2, and P2003R/D5 have been reviewed however we have no further comments to offer at this time. Additional Comments: We suggest holding the October 1997 meeting during the week October 20 - 24 in the Ottawa, Ontario area. Specific locations being considered are Rigaud, Quebec and Cornwall, Ontario both of which are within an hour or so's drive of the Ottawa, Montreal (Dorval), and Montreal (Mirabel) airports. -- David J.
