Vic, The sad thing with the TBR21 serial is that most of the political and controversial stuff is now in fact IN the foreword.........

The "Foreword" (often misconstrued as the "Forward") of any standard, anywhere, is never "Part of the Standard". The only thing that is "Part of the Standard", are those technical requirements couched in "shall statements" and "Normative Annexes". Notes, footnotes, etc., all are NOT "Part of the Standard". Have a good one. Vic
