I actually think you can share it with your coworkers, if you are in there to form a company position on the document, but with friends, no. Then the friends could be active too. You do not need to go to meetings to be able to participate in the standardization process. The best solution is still that all ISO docs be freely available. Another way to get gratis access to ISO specs: read them at the library! My local libraray (head department) carries all ISO standards.
