What I am hearing now is that all we need do is ask, indicating that we 
currently use LaTeX. I hope that is true.

        Dear SC 22 Convenors,<br>
        <br>
        In the JTC 1 plenary today, there was a rather shocking
        announcement that everyone should know about. Starting January
        1, 2025, all projects will be required to use the ISO On-line
        Standards Development (OSD) platform unless they can provide a
        technical justification why the OSD cannot be used.<br>
        <br>
        For many revisions of existing documents, the use of typesetting
        systems such as LaTeX would preclude the use of the OSD.
        However, for new documents, there might not be a way to avoid
        the OSD.<br>
        <br>
        The problem with the OSD is that it allows ISO editors to go in
        and make any modifications they wish. We have had many problems
        with ISO making changes that they think are editorial, but have
        actually changed the technical meaning of documents. More
        bluntly, the use of OSD implies a level of trust in ISO that has
        not been earned.<br>
        <br>
        One way to avoid this problem is to publish new TR- and TS-like
        documents in alternate venues, such as SC 22 white papers. A
        white paper has no ISO editing or development requirements, and
        only requires approval at the SC 22 level.<br>
        <br>
        David<br>
