The joint IEC/ISO Working group JWG15 had a meeting called by Dennis Brandl on December 9-11, 2002 at Rosslyn, VA, USA with the objective to discuss current status of FDIS 62264-1 and CDV/DIS 62264-2 and particularly to

review national comments received earlier
provide input to the ISA SP95 committee regarding ANSI/ISA-95.03.

The JWG 15 committee looked at the following major issues raised in the early comments:
