Control Number: PRP 19-34

The following draft CCSDS Recommended Standard has been placed on 
line for CCSDS Agency review:

     CCSDS 121.0-P-2.1.  Lossless Data Compression.  Pink Sheets.
                         Issue 2.1.  November 2019.

DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION:  The Recommended Standard for Lossless Data 
Compression defines a source-coding data-compression algorithm and 
specifies how data compressed using the algorithm are inserted into 
source packets for retrieval and decoding.  The current draft update 
addresses potential ambiguities and adds an option for a file header.

is 6 March 2020.  Area Directors and WG/BOF Chairs may submit review 
comments directly to the CCSDS Review Coordinator.  More information
