Subject: [MPEG-OTSPEC] OFF: no longer freely available?
Message-ID: <CALvn5ECNO7_y0PLkzaF=s-f4_sdQA_hJAtZqEnFM2fbkp3nfyg@mail.gmail.com>

Folks,

It appears that ISO/IEC 14496-22:2026 costs 227 CHF.

https://www.iso.org/standard/14496-22

Meanwhile, OOXML and ODF continue to be freely available.
https://www.iso.org/standard/71691.html
https://www.iso.org/standard/66363.html

Another standard (Schematron) from SC34 was freely available, but it is no
longer.
https://www.iso.org/standard/85625.html

I guess that the same thing happened to OFF.  Is this correct?

Regards,
Makoto

Murata-san,

As our friend Vladimir will be able to confirm, this is a known issue, and the result of a procedural change at the ISO level. The short answer is that ISO/IEC 14496-22:2026 will become freely available, but the exact timing is unknown due to ISO bureaucracy.

This issue will also affect the seventh edition of the ISO/IEC 10646 standard, and I have already alerted ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2 about this and how to resolve it.

Regards...

-- Ken

Ken,

Thank you.  The SC34 chair is also trying to make Schematron freely
available again.

Regards,
Makoto
