Subdivision of Projects

ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC22 approves the following and requests ISO/IEC JTC 1 authorize the following subdivisions of projects and assign them to SC22:

JTC 1.15287.02 Real time profiles for two new projects to be assigned to WG15,

JTC 1.15287.02.01– POSIX Realtime Application Support (AEP) – Amendment 1: Embedded Systems Profile, and

JTC 1.15287.02.02 - POSIX Realtime Application Support (AEP) – Amendment 2: Extended Profiles,

JTC 1.22.01.07 - COBOL for development of an ISO/IEC TR type 2 for

Information technology—Programming languages—Object finalization for Programming language COBOL,
to be assigned to WG4 with Project Editor Wataru Takagi.

JTC 1 22.30.02.02 for amendment 1 of ISO/IEC 14651 to align its character repertoire with the repertoire of ISO/IEC 10646, parts 1 and 2.

This is Project JTC 1 22.30.02.02.01 with the title "Information technology - International string ordering and comparison - Method
for comparing character strings and description of a common tailorable ordering template - Amendment 1" and is to be assigned to WG20 with Alain LaBonté as project editor.

Retention of Project Not Reaching DIS Stage Within Four Years of Reaching CD Stage

ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC22 notes that Project JTC 1.22.41 – POSIX Part 2, Shell and Utility Addendum has exceeded the statutory time for proceeding from CD to DIS Stage. ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC22 notes, however, that significant progress has been made on the project and there is no reason to suppose that it will not be completed. Therefore, ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC22 requests ISO/IEC JTC 1 to extend by another year the time permitted for proceeding from the CD to the DIS stage for Project JTC 1.22.41.

Retention of Project Not Reaching CD Stage Within Three Years of NP - JTC 1.15436 – Interfacing Modula-2 to C:

ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC22 notes that project JTC 1.15436 – Interfacing Modula-2 to C - has exceeded the statutory time for proceeding from NP to CD Stage. ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC22 notes, however, that significant progress has been made on the project as noted in SC22 N3143, and there is no reason to suppose that it will not be completed.

Therefore, ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC22 requests ISO/IEC JTC 1 to extend by another year the time permitted for proceeding to CD stage for Project JTC 1.15436.

Retention of Project Not Reaching CD Stage Within Three Years of NP - JTC 1.22.34 Complex Floating Point Arithmetic and Complex Elementary Numeric Functions

ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC22 notes that project JTC 1.22.34 - Complex Floating Point Arithmetic and Complex Elementary Numeric Functions - has exceeded the statutory time for proceeding from NP to CD Stage. ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC22 notes, however, a first draft for project 22.34 is expected in late 2000, and there is no reason to suppose that it will not be completed.

Therefore, ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC22 requests ISO/IEC JTC 1 to extend by another year the time permitted for proceeding to CD stage for Project JTC 1.22.34.

Retention of Project Not Reaching CD Stage Within Three Years of NP - JTC 1.22.15435 - API for internationalization

ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC22 notes that project JTC 1.22.15435 - API for internationalization - has exceeded the statutory time for proceeding from NP to CD Stage.

ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC22 requests ISO/IEC JTC 1 to extend by another year the time permitted for proceeding to CD stage for Project JTC 1.22.15435 and instructs the Convener of WG20 to initiate a CD registration ballot prior to the next SC22 plenary.
