1 – it's not done yet so it's not available. However, membership to the ISO 
committee is open/free to all.  Contact your country's standards body for 
membership.

2 – Quite true.  It's not done and may indeed change.  As noted, if you join 
and you don't like it – push for change!

3 - 32000–1 will NOT be deprecated by the release of 32000-2.  Both will be 
valid.

That's a bit harsh, don't you think?

Interesting and good to know however

1. How could "ordinary" people know that? Is ISO-32000-2 available anywhere for 
download?
2. ISO-32000-2 is not an official standard - so who knows maybe that point is 
due to change?
3. Maybe he wants to support the current ISO-32000-1, ISO PDF/A or some other 
non-deprecated ISO standard?

Until ISO-32000-2 is an official standard (somewhere in 2014?) (and all other 
ISO PDF related standards are deprecated - which is in 20 years I guess) it is 
perfectly valid to ask the question.

Furthermore only because some of us can't think of a use case doesn't mean 
there's none. For instance I met a guy at a fair once who was asking for 
several thousands signatures per document (and he wasn't the only one - don't 
ask me). The signature image was recorded as a handwritten signature and with 
that (and a certificate) one signature field was signed. The legal questions 
put aside - why should he be forced to (manually) sign 10.000 times? Signing 
one time and showing multiple appearances was all what he wanted. (And yes we 
told him about the possibility to use official qualified certificates (in 
combination with mass signatures) but it had to be a handwritten signature...)
