@ page 1 line 3312 section XCU/TC2/D4/26 objection [gwc xcu-tc2-d4-26]
Problem:
The committee maintenance procedures (Austin/112r1) state:
"The following are the criteria for a Technical Corrigenda (TC) item:
a. [...]
b. It should be non-controversial"
Change number XCU/TC2/D4/26 resulting from XCU ERN 10 is highly
controversial, and therefore does not meet the criteria for a TC item.
There was considerable opposition to this change when it was discussed
on the Austin Group mailing list. It ended with the ORs voting to accept
the change. The very fact that it needed an OR vote demonstrates that
it is controversial.
Action:
Remove XCU/TC2/D4/26 from the TC2 draft and send XCU ERN 10 down the
interpretations track instead.
N.B. If XCU/TC2/D4/26 is not removed, then the rationale given at
line 3323 "This clarifies the wording" should be altered. The wording
change is not a clarification, it is a major change to the requirements
of the standard.
