Maybe I was too quick. I just thought that if there was no problems, why not proceed to the next state. Or maybe I thought, if they do not want to comment at this time, then maybe a ballot would get them to do it. Anyway, what a registration ballot is, is just to approve the layout of the specification, that is more or less the table of contents. I honestly believe that spec is mature for that ballot to take place. It would also let IEEE get up to speed, creating a ballot group etc. Anyway WG15 is not operating in an email mode, there is too long between meetings to make things happen, so we must make the things roll via email. I do not understand why you could not read the doc with MS word 97. It is a WordPerfect 5.1 document. But there is also a text version, which IMHO is just as good, and actually better for commenting. Please, David, could you review and comment the draft as soon as possible? Say this week? You may have missed my email, but that was just reflecting what you and I had decided for the schedule in Ft. Lauderdale :-) So you should know. There were also some other actions for you, mostly some .18 or .23 business, could you complete that? I would also very much appreciate your advice on TR 10000 matters, there was a reference to part 2 section 6.3 which did not seem adequate, maybe it was instead sec 6.3 in part 1 or 3? With summer regards Keld
