Re: SUO: Latest Draft Ballot Questions
Matt, John, Frank et al --
Well, OK, "registry" is OK, but I do hope that
when the standard is presented to the public
at large, including a lot like me who don't
speak ISO, it will be made clear in the first
sentence that there was a lot of work done to
relate the components to each other and make them
work together as well as possible. I think that
to the uninitiated "registry" sounds like
one simply tells the world what one is doing,
regardless of what others are doing.
