	Title:	Danish national activities report for 9605 meeting
	Date:	1996-05-19
	Source: Danish Standards Association
	Action: for information

	This is the response from DS to the WG15 Action Items.

	9510-06 Member	  Bodies    -	 submit    issues    on
		synchronization in  writing or to the reflector
		by April 8, 1996.  No additional issues will be
		considered  under  the	synchronization  agenda
		item at the May, 1996 meeting.

		DS did so in N630.

	9510-08 Member	Bodies	 -  provide   URLs  and   other
		information they  would like posted to the WG15
		web page.

		DS has a web homepage at http://www.ds.dk/DS/IT/ - this
		is included in the WG15 home page.

	9510-10 Member Bodies  - review  the full N595 document
		and the  liaison report N607 and submit written
		contributions to  be  used  to	form  the  WG15
		response to  SC22 for  a common  plan  of  work
		within CEN/TC304.

		The response in N607 is ok with DS.

	9510-11 Member Bodies - review N596 and provide written
		comments  or   extensions  for	the  May,  1996
		meeting.

		DS has no specific comments at this time on N596.

	9510-12 Member Bodies  and X/Open Liaison - review N622
		in   the    context   of   providing   an   ISO
		specification in alignment with the Single Unix
		Specification and come to the May, 1996 meeting
		with a	preferred tactical  method  to	achieve
		this (if appropriate).

		DS is in favour of having the single Unix Specification
		progressed as an ISO standard, but it should go via IEEE
		and WG15 to progress it to IS.

	9510-23 Denmark -  report at the May, 1996 WG15 meeting
		what the  state of  their LIS work is, and what
		they expect  to be  able to  accomplish.  (from
		9505-24)

		DS has stated that we wanted to work on a recent merged
		POSIX-1 document and after some discussion and advice
		from the previous editor, Paul Rabin and from the
		Netherlands, the US development body has agreed to do
		this.  We have not yet got this text from the US
		development body.  We have got the old LIS text and also
		notes with proposed ballot resolutions, but thsi is
		outdated and has no future.

	9510-33 Member Bodies  - identify appropriate users (of
		profiles) and  seek feedback  from them  in the
		R&C process on how the profiles meet (or do not
		meet) their needs.  (from RGCPA issue #2)

		DS has no comments.

	End of DS report for 1996-05 WG15 meeting
