Resolution WG 2 / 15: Contribution to Resolution 34 and 35, JTC1 N8804

SC 32/WG 02 will make a contribution to the report for the JTC 1 2008 Plenary Meeting, produced in accordance with Resolution 34 and Resolution 35 related to the Web Services Registry. (ISO/IEC JTC 1 N8804 Resolutions adopted at the 22nd Meeting of ISO/IEC JTC1, 8-13 October 2007 in Australia.) Hajime Horiuchi is responsible for sending a contribution to Web service study group.


Resolution WG 2 / 16: Response to JTC1 Goald Coast Reslltuion #33 – IT Vocabulary Project

SC 32/WG 02 requests that SC32 adopt the following position and forward it to the JTC1 Vocabulary Maintenance Team:

In response to JTC1 Gold Coast Resolution #33, JTC1/Sc32 requests that:

1)  JTC1 make all Parts of ISO/IEC 2382 publicly available standards.

2)  Instruct those responsible for the maintenance of ISO/IEC 2382 not to change or amend the existing definitions and associated terms (English/French) for the concepts defined in the existing first 35 Parts of ISO/IEC 2382, e.g., reformatting definitions according to the requirements of ISO 10241 is acceptable, changing the meaning of the term (representing a concept) is not acceptable.

A prime reason here is that many of the definition/term pairs in ISO/IEC 2382 are used in other ISO/IEC and ISO standards “as is” as well as in the national standards of JTC1 P-members . Thus any change to the existing definitions and for the concepts defined in ISO/IEC 2382 will have a very disruptive cascade effect on existing international and national standards developed during the past ten years and in widespread use.

A secondary reason is that any suggested change in a definition/term pair (in English and/or French) might indicate that those advocating a change most likely have a different concept in mind from that originally defined in (a part of) ISO/IEC 2382.

Resolution WG 2 / 17: Extension/Reestablishment of Project dates for 20944-1,2,3,4,5,

SC 32/WG 02 requests SC32 Secretariat to take a appropriate action necessary for extending the projects 20944-1,2,3,4,5 according to revised program of work and to reestablish these project, if necessary.

Resolution WG 2 / 18: Extension/Reestablishment of Project dates for 19763-2,4

SC 32/WG 02 requests SC32 Secretariat to take a appropriate action necessary for extending the projects 19763-2,4 according to revised program of work and to reestablish these project, if necessary.

Resolution WG 2 / 19: Extension/Reestablishment of Project dates for 19773

SC 32/WG 02 requests SC32 Secretariat to take a appropriate action necessary for extending the project 19773 according to revised program of work and to reestablish this project, if necessary.

Resolution WG 2 / 20: Extension/Reestablishment of Project dates for 14957

SC 32/WG 02 requests SC32 Secretariat to take a appropriate action necessary for extending the project 14957 according to revised program of work and to reestablish this project, if necessary.
