I just received the following note. Please act on it (or ignore it) as you
see
best,
***
To: ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 22/WG 4, Programming language COBOL
INCITS/J4, Technical Committee COBOL
COBOL working draft 1.10, in zipped PDF format, is available for download
from
the WG4 website: http://www.cobolstandard.info/wg4/document.html
(WD
1.10). I
will send this document to SC22 for concurrent Committee Draft (CD)
registration
and CD ballot.
I decided not to hold up the concurrent CD registration and CD ballot for
resolution of certain details; you can see these in Annex G, Open Issues.
Please
send comments on these issues, along with any other comments.
Anyone can send comments directly to INCITS/J4
(bobkarlin@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
) for
consideration in development of the U.S. position on the CD ballot. You
should
also send your comments to your national body for development of your
country's
position.
This is the first committee draft, which is usually considered to be a
rough
draft. Comments on the overall feature content as well as comments on
specification details will be helpful. The next planned ballot is a Final
CD
ballot, for which the document should be in tip-top shape (though changes
can
still be made). Your input will help us make it that way.
I'll notify you when I know the ballot closing date. Your national body
will
have an earlier closing date.
The ballot starting date will be a bit later than shown in the draft
revision
schedule at http://www.cobolstandard.info/j4/files/07-0183.doc
, but the
overall
schedule should not change drastically because the ballot period will be 3
months rather than the projected 4 months.
Any comments to INCITS/J4 (bobkarlin@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
) by the March
10-14,
2008, J4 meeting in Ontario, CA, will be greatly appreciated.
