Resolution 11 PAS Transposition and Normative Referencing
JTC 1 encourages and invites its SCs/SWGs and NBs to identify candidate PASs and actively work
with the relevant potential PAS submitter to promote these PASs within JTC 1.
JTC 1 recognizes that an open, positive attitude of its SCs and WGs towards potential PAS submitters
and their contributions is vital for the success of the PAS process.
JTC 1 reminds its SCs that as part of the PAS process, as described in N 3582, it has offered SC
counsel to PAS submitters. Therefore, JTC 1 encourages its SCs to assume, to the extent possible, an
open, positive attitude towards Recognized PAS Submitters and their potential contributions, and
requests the SCs to duly provide any counsel requested.
In addition, SCs are strongly encouraged to identify potential PAS submitters which could make
valuable contributions to the SC work, and to approach them pro-actively.
Recognized PAS submitters are invited to contact the appropriate national PAS mentor or the JTC 1
chairperson in case of any difficulty encountered.
JTC 1 further encourages its subsidiary bodies to make use of normative referencing whenever this is
deemed appropriate, to bring about market-oriented standards in a timely manner.

experiences in time for the next JTC 1 Plenary in Ottawa. The questions in JTC 1 N 4470 are offered

Resolution 31 BSR Rules and Guidelines
Having heard a report of the BSR Management Committee meeting in Geneva, JTC 1 does not believe

JTC 1 requests its Secretariat to forward this message to the BSR Management Committee for its
consideration.
Unanimous
Resolution 32 Pilot of a New Procedure for Maintenance of Mature Standards
JTC 1 authorizes SC 21 to initiate a pilot of a new procedure for maintenance of mature standards as
contained in document JTC 1 N 4353. The SC 21 Chairman is requested to report on the progress of
this pilot at the next JTC 1 Plenary meeting in Ottawa in September 1997.
Further, the Ad Hoc on JTC 1 Reengineering is asked to review documents JTC 1 N 4352 and N 4353
for possible use within other JTC 1 subcommittees.
Unanimous
Resolution 33 Distribution of JTC 1 Documents
JTC1 recognizes the efforts needed to advance the document distribution within JTC1 from Stage 1
(diskette distribution) to Stage 3 (Server availability), referring to the IT-implementation Policy
N4246r and Implementation Timeline in JTC1 N4475.
JTC1 considers that currently JTC1 documents are distributed both on paper, on diskette and via
e-mail, which places the implementation of IT within JTC1 in an unidentified stage between the Stages
0 and 1, and which causes difficulties in retracking and tracing the JTC1 documents by the JTC1
Membership.
JTC1 also recognizes that during the last few months before this Plenary Meeting many documents
had to be forwarded in a short time due to deadlines very close to the meeting, and that in the coming
year again a significant amount of work is to be expected prior to completion of the full use of IT
within JTC1.
Terefore the JTC1 instructs its Secretariat that during this period of transition when a document is
forwarded by e-mail the document-number, explicit title and the status of the document should be
made clearly visible (in the "Subject"- or "Ref."- header),
if a document is sent out by e-mail each e-mail message should contain only one JTC1 document per
message,
when a document refers to a specific action to be accomplished by a Secretariat, this should appear
clearly in the document the document also be sent via e-mail ,
a document-number should only be allocated to a document when the document is actually available at
the JTC1 Secretariat,
each Nxx00 and Nxx50 document-list should be distributed as soon as possible after the related 50
document-numbers have been allocated,
when a diskette is sent out to the JTC1 Membership the Secretariat should send out an e-mail message
to its membership announcing which documents are on the diskette, i.e. to be received soon,
for documents with short timescales (e.g., 60-day letter ballots), these documents should be sent via
both email and airmail diskette to ensure that National Bodies have adequate time to respond.
Unanimous
Resolution 35 Co-operation with TC 204
JTC 1 notes the offer from TC 204 to supply a draft on ASN1 application dedicated to transport
telematics and instructs its subcommittee 21 to respond.
Unanimous
