ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 18 WG 3 (Document Arcitecture) has had several joint meetings with CCITT Study Group VIII WP 4 Question 26 (Document Architecture Transfer and Manipulation). Since the meetings usually last two weeks, one week is chaired by the ISO chair (Steve Price, UK) and the other week by the CCITT (myself). Several guidelines have been published to cover meeting procedures. Herman Silbiger, Chair CCITT Study Group VIII Working Party 4. hsilbiger@attmail.ATT.COM
