Re: [Ltru] Re: Liaison with TC37/SC2



Might I suggest that, as Sue-Ellen (of ANSI, who used to be an ISO colleague of mine) is an American and SIL (RA for 639-3) also American and ISO/TC 37/SC 2 already has an American Chair, we propose some person(s) born in some other country less under the influence of current US foreign policy in re territorial/linguistic designations and more eager to respect more diverse opinions (excluding Austria, because either 639-1 or 639-2 - whichever! - already has an Austrian RA, which only supports the other to be under LOC_US control)? I propose this as someone with an ever-growing number of US-born friends who feel embarrassed by this irrational and totally unnecessary push towards monopoly and who would rather much rather operate professionally in a freer, less unequal atmosphere (where nobody can blame any one country, especially _their_ native country, for errors - and who could blame anyone for desiring that?).
