Member Body	Clause/ Subclause	Paragraph Figure/ Table	Type of comment (General/ Technical/Editorial)	COMMENTS	Disposition agreed in Ballot Resolution Meeting
Japan		Figure 4.15 Right	Editorial	A small heading should be added.	Accept

UK			General	The title and scope of this Draft Technical Report do not make it clear that, as it is currently drafted, it is only generally applicable to the composition of texts in Japanese and other Asian languages that use monospaced character fonts.	Accept in principle. The scope is amended to clarify the “complex composition” which is dealt with in this Technical Report.
UK			General	If the scope were to be widened to include texts using the latin alphabet and similar orthographies, a number of clauses(e.g. 4.5.2, 4.9, 4.10.1) would require extensive re-drafting to make them more generally applicable, which would necessitate a re-ballot of a new Draft. The UK will change its vote to APPROVAL if suitable changes are made to the title and scope clause to make the limited	Accept in principle. Several clauses are amended to support proportional pitch compositions. More sophisticated compositions will be dealt with in the next Technical Report to be submitted and balloted.
US			General	This material should be included in an amendment rather than a TR. Therefore it would not be eligible for fast-track.	Reject. This material deals with neither DSSSL itself nor its amendment/extension.
