I would hope for a new EMC standard.  Can you imagine being the "host" for
testing this IC under EN55024?

I hope that this era falls into the category of medical equipment using IEC 
601.
I hate to see 950 get rearranged again.  I experienced enough grief with 225

being assimilated into 950.  <grin>
