The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has a full-fledged
sub-committee (SC34) dedicated to the SGML family of standards. This session
reports on the status of SC34 standards, including SGML (basis for XML), DSSSL
(basis for XSL), HyTime (important basis for XPath, XLink, and XPointer),
Topic Maps ISMID, and other related standards. As SC34 is meeting prior to
the conference, the most current information will be presented at this session.
SC34 is part of ISO/IEC JTC1. The URL for its work is at http://www.jtc1.org/Navigation.asp?Area=Structure&Mode=Browse&SubComm=SC*space*34&x=7&y=6
