[CMC] ISO Affiliation with CCSDS

[Juan.Miro at esa.int]

Dear James,

Looking at the points raised by CESG, I can see several important ones 
justifying to stay affiliated with ISO, like the adherence to the ISO 
patent declaration, avoiding overlap with ISO standards and keeping the 
balance with the European Cooperation for Space Standardisation (ECSS). 

If the financial burden is excessive for NASA then one could think of 
asking CCSDS member Agencies to contribute to cover the costs via CCSDS 
membership fee.

Regards
Juan

Hi All,

CCSDS secretariat is considering to sever the CCSDS affiliation with ISO 
due to cost of implementation of ISO requirements and associated fees. The 
consequence are the CCSDS standards will not be ISO standards and there 
will be no ISO TC20/SC13 and ISO TC20/SC14 affiliation with CCSDS.  I need 
to make an urgent decision in this matter so please provide your input by 
COB Thursday December 3.  Also a formal CMC poll will be provided for your 
official vote very soon.
  
Thank you,

James
