The Invocation Principle - see previous post - was part of the latest revision of ISO 8015. The FDIS (Final Draft International Standard) of 8015 has just recently been out for vote, and the results are back.
In order to be approved, two thirds of member organisations must vote in favour of the FDIS (66.66%), and no more than 25% of members must vote against. The actual results were 65% in favour, and 32% opposed. The FDIS has thus received a negative vote, and has been 'disapproved'.
Phew! But far too close for comfort!

Hi Iain
ReplyDeleteYour refutation is utterly convincing.
Why not to take it easy with indicating a simple statement such as "ISO GPS standards applies" in or near title blocks, if the problem of lacking a formal method is intended to be solved?

Hi Mas'ood,
ReplyDeleteI agree entirely, and that is what we are pushing for in the ISO meetings.
Next set of meetings is in February, so we will see how receptive other nations are to the idea then.
Thanks for your interest.
