Maybe we are talking about two different things.
I am not arguing the PDF Association status in the ISO. I am arguing the
Liaison membership in the PDF Association. In the link I cited, it clearly says
that Liaison members of the PDFA do not have access to drafts of upcoming ISO
standards.
If any of us would like access to the drafts by becoming a member of PDFA, then
Liaison will not work for us. Unless there is missing information or they hold
exceptions.
