In the 2015-01-29 meeting notes, in the section on "ecmarkup", this exchange is noted:
BT: I believe Allen would like to continue using Word DH: No, we want to get away from that AWB: ISO requires the document to be submitted in Word
I have it on good authority that JTC 1's IT Task Force, while it may have a strong preference for MS Word, *will* accept documents in other formats. In fact, ISO even has an XML vocabulary for standards: http://www.iso.org/schema/isosts/ though I admit it's unclear how much they encourage its use. (Personally, I'd much prefer that the spec source be in a text-based format like HTML or XML, as that would eliminate the huge amount of munging that I have to do to extract something useful from the PDF each time a new revision comes out.) -Michael _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list es-discuss@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
