ISO18876

[West, Matthew R SITI-ITPSIE]

Dear Bernd,

Fine, lets make it four weeks. After all it has taken us
7 years to get this far, so I don't suppose another couple
of weeks will matter that much.

See comments below.

MW: I presume this is about alleged dependence on ISO15926. There is
certainly none intentionally. The only mention of 15926 (in an example
at that) has been removed, and I really can't see anything that would
not apply just as much to using a harmonised set of modules (or AP214) 
as an integration model as 15926. So if you do think there is
something remaining, please be specific about the passages involved.

MW: Of course the reality is that 15926 is dependent on 18876, rather
than the reverse.

MW: It should not take more than that (hence the 1 week initial 
proposal). It may help further to note that if you turn on:
Tools, track changes, highlight changes, highlight changes on screen,
in Word, you can see all the changes that have been made.
