3     US Public Comment
 
      Plum suggested that any questions about US public comment procedures are
      better handled in a US TAG meeting than in joint session of WG21+X3J16.
 
      Plum suggested that every public comment should be distributed to every
      X3J16 member.  That way, if we decline to act on a particular comment,
      we can at least reply that the comment was distributed to the all the
      members and no one decided to support it.
 
      Lenkov explained that, when we respond to each public comment, we will
      select a response from one of several categories.  He enumerated the
      categories.
 
      The TAG discussed whether every public comment needs to be distributed
      on paper, or if we can just post them to a reflector or an ftp site.
      Koenig offered to set up a new reflector for distributing public
      comments.
 
      Plum listed important dates for the US public review:
      16 Apr: CD will be available on an ftp site (in postscript without
          editorial boxes or diff marks)
      26 May: public comment period begins

      03 Jul: last date to submit comments that may influence the US TAG
          position on CD ballot
      25 Jul: public comment period officially ends
 
      The TAG returned to the question of distributing public comments.
      Koenig elaborated his offer to create a new reflector for distributing
      public comments to X3J16 members.  He will initialize that reflector's
      member list by copying the -all member list.  Anyone who joins X3J16
      after that will have to ask to be placed on that reflector.  This new
      reflector is only for distributing comments, not for discussing them.
      Members should discuss comments on the appropriate WG reflector(s).
 
      Motion by Lenkov/Lajoie:
 
          Move we accept Koenig's offer to establish a new reflector for
          distributing public comment as just described.
 
      Motion passed: lots yes, 0 no.
 
4     Adjournment
 
      Motion to adjourn by Schwarz/Saks passed without objection.
 
      The meeting adjourned at 11:05.
