- The US technical advisory group (TAG) for ISO/TC97 has agreed to propose
- an ISO work item based on the IEEE 1003.1 POSIX effort. This is the
- formal process needed to initiate an ISO standards activity. This
- effort would be CLOSELY coordinated with the 1003.1 effort to assure that
- we have a Single Standard. Individuals and Institutions outside of the
- US are encouraged to contact their ISO TC97 representatives and let them
- know of their interest, ideally to encourage both an Approval of the
- work item; and an agreement to participate in the project. (Many countries
- will be hesitant to participate if they don't know who inside the country
- is capable of providing technical input -- so these contacts can aid both
- the ISO representatives, and also potentially the individuals who are willing
- to participate in their countries "TAGs".)
