The resolution for this item (15-07) passed unanimously.

WG 23 further requested that TR 24772-1, -2, -4 and -8 be commenced immediately, with a 36 month target date for publication, and a scope and editor assigned. The resolution for this item (15-08) passed unanimously.

As available

3.8 Standing Document 6

Review newly created SD 6 for correctness and formatting.

4 Strategy (Face to face meetings only)

At an earlier meeting, it was recommended that we consider developing programming standards to avoid section 7 (design) vulnerabilities. A discussion is needed as to what format such document(s) would take, what level of assurance they should target, i.e. scope, goals. Before going too far, should we draft an outline of a sample standard (or technical specification)?

An idea was presented this week to mine the guidance to user sections for common guidance, and to create a top N (N=10, N=25, etc) guidances that can be used by people creating programming guides. A reasonable place to put such guidance would be in section 5.

We have an issue with moving to ISO eCommittee, in that people that contribute that are not registered as NB experts get unequal access to documents. Other committees do not use the N-numbering system the way that we have. They use the N-numbers for official (process) documents such as minutes and agendas, and for product versions ready for ballot. All other documents are “informal”. Would such a process work for us? We could set up a CVS or a GIT system where it is easy and reliable to identify versions of a document as it is edited.

5 Publicity (Face to face meetings only)

6 Other Business

6.1 Review of Assignment of responsibilities
