3.0 Specific Actions For This Meeting
3.1 The Austin Group and the Joint Procedures Committee
Roger Martin provided a little bit of background material concerning the Joint Procedures Committee and the Austin Group (the technical group). The procedures group is charged with developing a set of procedures for developing a standard jointly between The Open Group (TOG), PASC, and ISO & WG15. Andrew Josey described the meetings of the technical group. The group is only just beginning at this point. See http://www.opengroup.org/austin for further information. There was some discussion of process. The proposed rules of the Joint Procedures Committee were discussed, including the methods of informal and more formal issue resolution among the three bodies during development of the document.
The current thoughts from the Joint Procedures Committee propose that the three bodies (TOG, PASC, and ISO) be allowed at the end of the process to either approve or disapprove of the revised standard without affecting its content. A discussion ensued around the following issues: 1) whether or not there exist procedures in each of those three bodies that will permit simple yes/no votes to happen, 2) what, if anything, could or should be done to handle comments that might arise from those ballots, and 3) the possibility that not all of the bodies might adopt the resulting document.
Regarding the first issue, Keld said that the only ISO procedure that allows a mere yes/no vote is the FDIS ballot of the 5-stage process, and that the fast-track process allows for extensive commenting and subsequent ballot resolution and technical changes to the document, such as the recent Ecmascript 16262 and cultural registry 15897 fast-track ballots. ISO PAS procedures work very similar to fast-track in this respect. Jay Ashford said that the common development procedures did allow internal ballots to be taken in each of the constituencies during the development phase. Keld said that we then may need a new synchronization plan. This would permit ISO to ballot as it sees fit, concluding with a yes/no vote as proposed by the Joint Procedures Committee. David Blackwood expressed concern that attempts to circumvent the ISO process could increase the chances of either a ballot failure at ISO, or of ISO adopting a document different than the one adopted by the other participants. Further, submission of the joint document as for ISO fast-track or PAS ballot normally removes WGs (and SCs) from participation.
Regarding comments that might be generated from the ballots, we concluded that if comments from all three groups agreed that a fix-up were needed, the document could be modified. We were not sure how to handle comments if there was not unamimity.
Regarding the possibility of the bodies not all adopting the resulting document, we concluded that there is no way to force any of them to either adopt the revised document or to stop work in related areas should they not agree. We did agree that we should work to make joint adoption as likely as possible.
Further discussion is likely as the Joint Procedures Committee continues its work.
Note that Resolution 99-406 created two rapporteur groups to attend to the Joint Procedures Committee and the Austin Group.
4.0 Actions Arising From Reports
These have all been addressed elsewhere.
5.0 Project Activities – Registration, Balloting, Content
5.1 9945-3 LIS System Interface (no PASC project)
Keld Simonsen, as Project Editor, reported on progress, specifically with macros for document processing.
5.2 9945-2 Shell & Utilities
5.2.1 22.41 Additional Utilities (1003.2b)
Nick Stoughton reported that a Draft Disposition of Comments has been written and a new draft will be forthcoming very soon. A new ISO ballot should happen shortly after the new draft is published.
5.2.1 22.43 Batch Ammendment (1003.2d)
Nick Stoughtohn reported that this has been completed, but it is unclear whether or not anyone is using it. We need to ask if this is being used to see if it really requires renewal along with the base 1003.2 or if it should be dropped due to non-use.
5.3 15068 Administered Systems
5.3.1 (no SC22 project) Systems Adminstration Overview (no PASC project)
This project has been withdrawn by PASC and by SC22. While some effort has been expended by both Canada and Denmark to find resources and some has been found, not enough resource exists to successfully complete the project. An action item was created to ask other groups (notably Usenix).
5.3.1 22.21.03.03 Print Administration (no PASC project)
The sense of the group is that this project should be withdrawn at the SC22 level, just as it has been at PASC. A resolution to that effect was drafted. See below.
5.4 9945-1 C Language Bindings
5.4.1 22.39 Additional System Services (P1003.1a)
A draft has been prepared, and is in IEEE ballot, that resolves all known international objections. An official Disposition of Comments is yet to arrive.
5.4.2 22.39 Additional Real Time Extensions (P1003.1d)
Ballot resolution is progressing at present
5.4.3 22.44 Security Amendment (P1003.1e)

5.4.4 22.21.01.03.03 Protocol Independent Interfaces (P1003.1g)
No additional discussion.
5.4.5 22.21.04.01.01 Advanced Real Time Extensions (P1003.1j)
It is now waiting for a Disposition of Comments.
5.5 14519 Ada Language Bindings
It is anticipated that 1003.1f (Ada binding to 1003.21) will use ISO fast track ballot, just as the other Ada binding documents.
IEEE Standard 1003.5c (Ada bindings to Protocol Independent Interfaces) should be ready for ISO fast track ballot. WG15 invited the US to submit the approved standard for fast track approval.
5.6 13210, 14515-x Test Methods
5.6.1 22.37 CD13210 Test Methods (2003R)
Jim Oblinger reported in N779/e1360 that 13210 is now ready for DIS ballot.
5.6.2 14515-1 Test Methods for 1003.1 (2003.1)
Done and deleted from future agendas.
5.6.2.1 14515-1 Test Methods for 1003.1b (2003.1b)
Passed ballot in IEEE. Waiting on Disposition of Comments. Final PDAM needs to be sent to ISO as soon as possible.
5.6.3 14515-2 Test Methods for 9945-2 (2003.2)
Done. Deleted from future agendas.
5.7 Guide For National Profiles and Locales
Denmark reported that a WG15 Ad Hoc meeting was held this week as part of the PASC meetings. A regular meeting of the PASC working group was requested but the working group chair never called the meeting.
N766 and N767 distributed. Substantial discussion regarding whether or not the draft they have produced should be IEEE copyright or ISO copyright, and how the PAR should be handled (e.g. change to IPAR). ACTION Convener and US to suggest that material being developed for P1494 and ISO 14766 is ready to become a draft document; and has been jointly developed. An appropriate copyright statement needs to be developed for such drafts.
5.8 22.15287 OSE Profile Projects
5.8.1 15287-1 Supercomputing AEP (1003.10)
A Disposition of Comments is now required to complete the process.
5.8.2 15287-2 Real Time System Environment Profile (1003.13)
Comments received from The Netherlands, all of which appear to be editorial in nature. A Disposition of Comments report will be forthcoming. This document should now be submitted for DISP ballot for final resolution.
5.8.3 Guide for Developing User Organization OSE Profiles (1003.23)
A Division of Work for this item was disapproved. However, Technical Reports (such as this) can be submitted for fast track. Since this is an approved IEEE standard, WG15 felt the project should be submitted for fast track to make one further attempt at ISO standardization.
5.9 Realtime Distrib Sys Comm LIS (P1003.21)
A resolution was approved to submit for concurrent CD Registration and Ballot.
5.10 Completed Work and Year for Revision/Reaffirmation/Withdrawal (4 yr)

IEEE P1003.21 LIS (Part 1: Realtime Distributed Systems Communication Application Program Interface (API)[Language-Independent]) for JTC1.22.18011 concurrent CD Registration and CD Ballot.
99-405 Termination of Liaison
Whereas WG22 PCTE has been disbanded by SC22, WG15 thanks Keld Simonsen for acting as liaison from WG22 PCTE to WG15 and for all his valued input.
99-406 Establishment of Rapporteur Groups
Whereas the technical work to revise IS 9945-1 and IS 9945-2 is being done jointly by The Open Group, IEEE PASC, and WG15 in a committee known as "the Austin group", to encourage and facilitate international participation WG15 hereby establishes a Rapporteur group for rEVising (REV) and appoints Nick Stoughton as lead rapporteur and Keld Simonsen as alternate. This rapporteur group shall meet in conjunction with "the Austin group" and shall complete its work upon the successful revision of 9945-1 and 9945-2.
And, whereas a joint procedures committee has been established to coordinate the procedural implications of joint technical development of revisions to IS 9945-1 and IS 9945-2, to encourage and facilitate international participation WG15 hereby establishes a Rapporteur group for Procedures and Coordination (RPC) and appoints David Blackwood as lead rapporteur and Keld Simonsen as alternate. This rapporteur group shall meet in conjunction with the "joint procedures committee" and shall continue to exist only so long as necessary to facilitate procedural issues related to the joint development of common standards.
Both rapporteur groups shall have a maximum of three years in which to complete their work unless further extended by resolution of WG15.
99-407 Voting Representatives
Whereas the rapporteur groups established in 99-406 are in fact joint working groups of The Open Group, IEEE PASC, and WG15, and whereas a voting procedure has been proposed whereby each of those organizations has a single vote in the case of non-consensus, therefore the lead rapporteur of each group has the responsibility of ensuring that WG15 has a voting representative present at every meeting.
99-408 Withdrawal of Project
Whereas the US development body has ceased development of P1387.4 Print Administration, therefore WG15 requests SC22 to withdraw the corresponding work item JTC1.22.21.03.03 (15068-4). (Approved without objection)
99-409 Fasttrack of documents
WG15 invites the US to submit IEEE Std. 1003.5c to SC22 for fast-track approval as an IS.
WG15 invites the US to submit IEEE Std. 1003.23, if and when appropriate, to SC22 for fast-track approval as a TR.
99-410 WG15 Project Development
Whereas WG15 and IEEE PASC have agreed to joint development of the ISO 14766 (P1494) project, therefore WG15 agrees that meetings in support of such joint development are in fact authorized ad-hoc meetings of WG15. Said ad-hoc meetings to be chaired by David Blackwood (Canada).
99-411 Acceptance of Invitation
WG15 thanks Canada for its invitation to meet July, 1999 in Montreal, Canada and gratefully accepts.
99-412 Expression of Appreciation to the Host
WG15 expresses its appreciation to the U.S. Member Body, and particularly to Mr. Roger Martin, for hosting an excellent meeting, and to the IEEE Computer Society for an excellent and most enjoyable dinner.
Appreciations also go to Mr. Roger Martin (U.S.) for acting as Chair and to Mr. Jay Ashford (U.S.) for acting as Secretary of the meeting and to Keld Simonsen (Denmark) for once again supplying the LAN infrastructure.
99-413 Expression of Appreciation
WG15 expresses its appreciation to the U.K., Canadian, and Danish delegations for supplying volunteers to the drafting committee (Nick Stoughton, David Blackwood, and Keld Simonsen), and for their excellent and most exhaustive work in recording the resolutions from this meeting.
99-414 Happy Birthday John Hill
Whereas once again WG15 has completed a successful meeting, despite the absence of its former Convener (Jim Isac), therefore WG15 wishes to express congratulations to all its participants and a very happy birthday to John Hill. (Approved)
