It now apparently requires an internal caucus or vote process, which they have committed to us should be done by early June.

The "official" landing page for the spec, under their banner, always has continued to offer the document for sale to anyone for Swiss Francs. This is perhaps understandable when you recall that the sale of copies of their specifications is a key source of revenue for ISO, IEC, and their respective national bodies. Kind regards Jamie

Denny, we did renew and JTC 1 acknowledged our application to JTC 1 to have a freely available copy posted -- after asking for it in the initial submission when sent to them, as we always do. All of our past requests to do so for our PAS submissions have been honored: the principal criteria is that OASIS offers the document online for free, which of course we do. But JTC 1 have added a number of forms, format requirements and procedural steps over time. It now apparently requires an internal caucus or vote process, which they have committed to us should be done by early June.
In terms of finding the document: Even when this request is granted, the result has been that there is a separate source of links to the document for free access, on a distinct ISO/IEC page. The "official" landing page for the spec, under their banner, always has continued to offer the document for sale to anyone for Swiss Francs. This is perhaps understandable when you recall that the sale of copies of their specifications is a key source of revenue for ISO, IEC, and their respective national bodies. Kind regards Jamie

Group,
Did we drop the concept of having the ISO/IEC variant being freely available? The version pointed to by the press release appears to still be paywalled.
