I read in !emc-pstc that John Allen <[email protected]> wrote (in
<[email protected]>) about 'CTL
Decisions - the situation for Europe' on Thu, 18 Dec 2003:

There is common membership between CTL and OSM. But there isn't, AFAIK,
any **automatic formal** procedure for OSM to endorse or reject CTL
interpretations, and no procedure for OSM interpretations to be put in
the public domain. They are only available to test-houses at present.

I think Richard's proposal to close the discussion is a bit premature.
I'd wait till the moderator(s) asks us to desist. At the moment, he/they
may find the discussion enlightening for him/themselves, and especially
for other US people interested in exporting to Europe.
