Report of SC34/WG2 -- Background of the draft agenda SC34 N374rev1

Major activities taken by SC34/WG2 after the last meeting are shown:

1. Corrigendum 1 to ISO/IEC 9541-4

DCor.1 to ISO/IEC 9541-4:2009 was approved with no comments. The DCor.1 text (SC34 N1235) was submitted to ITTF for publication.

2. ISO/IEC 9541-1, 2, 3 (2nd editions)

In accordance with the recommendation of the last WG2 meeting, the editors of ISO/IEC 9541-1, 2, 3 (2nd editions) are working to create FCD texts. They have not yet been completed in March 2010.

3. UOML (Unstructured Operation Markup Language)

OASIS submitted the DIS text of UOML part 1 version 1.0 (ISO/IEC DIS 14297) using PAS procedure. The DIS ballot will be terminated on 2010-04-21.

4. Liaison with SC29/WG11

WG2 received a liaison document SC34 N1318 (SC29/WG11 N10945) from SC29/WG11, which informs that SC29/WG11 accepted WG2 comments on ISO/IEC 14496-5/Amd.14/DCOR1 (Open Font Format reference software) and issued a corrigendum.

SC29 submitted ISO/IEC 14496-22:2009/FPDAM1 (OFF, Support for many-to-one range mappings) for balloting. It seems to have no problem but is circulate as WG2 N378 for WG2 members' review.
