I've listed these below. I will also note that there is a strong interest and support for processes that increase the cooperation between the Open Group, IEEE PASC and WG15 towards these ends. =================================================== Resolution 98-392 Invitation to The Open Group Whereas there is value in using consistent numbering schemes for related documents, and whereas TOG has submitted and had approved as an IS a PAS submission which is related to a POSIX project but which is numbered differently, therefore, in the spirit of co-operation, WG15 invites TOG in future PAS submissions, where these might best be given a consistent number with current WG15 documents, to request WG15's assistance in obtaining from ITTF an appropriate document number before the PAS ballot. ========================================================= Resolution 98-395 Congratulations to The Open Group WG15 extends its congratulations to The Open Group on the occasion of approval of the first PAS submission as an International Standard. ========================================================== Resolution 98-394 PAS Defect Report Process Whereas IS15879 has been approved as a PAS submission from TOG, and assigned to SC22/WG15, therefore WG15 recommends that defect reports on IS15879 be handled as follows: 1 - Defect reports received be referred to TOG (see http://www.opengroup.org/interpretations/ for TOG process) 2 - TOG to provide a recommendation back to WG15 for either a technical corrigenda or a record of response. ======================== I will look forward to working with you in these various areas of the next few months.
