ISO/IEC JTC1/SC22/WG15 N524


Title: Danish national activities report
Date: 1994-10-25
Source: Danish Standards Association
Agenda: WG15 9410 1.6
Action: for information

This is the response from DS to the WG15 Action Items

9405-15      DS has submitted example Danish National profiles
	     to WG15, and they are included in IS 9945-1 and IS
	     9945-2.

9405-19      DS can offer Keld Simonsen as participant in Edi-
	     ting groups for IS 9945-1 and IS 9945-2

9405-29      DS has no comment on the project management format
	     in N486

9405-42      DS believes that an international register of POSIX
	     Locales and Charmaps are required for use of POSIX
	     internationalization functionality in a consistent
	     way across application platforms and systems. DS
	     believes that the CEN registry will be adequate
	     technically for this purpose. There may be problems
	     in referencing CEN standards and thus registered
	     items according to a CEN standard, in ISO/IEC stan-
	     dards. The CEN/ISO/IEC Vienna agreement may have
	     further information on this. If it is not possible
	     to use CEN standards, CEN could promote its POSIX
	     registry standard to become an ISO/IEC standard.

9405-44      DS offers comments in N521

9405-49      DS offered one comment by email to the WG15 email
	     reflector, on an error in POSIX-1 with a syntaxical
	     error (on TZ) in an informative annex. Another
	     problem was not available by email, but is included
	     in the Disposition of Comments on POSIX-2 DIS,
	     where a proposed editorial change (clarifying loca-
	     ledef "copy" be not binary) was deemed "sub-
	     stantial" in IEEE terms.

9405-58      As CEN working relation, N495 was sent to CEN/-
	     TC304, and as a result, TC304 plan to allow JTC1
	     members to submit to the CEN registry.
