RE: ballot and comment process...
Mike,
I would suggest that you use the ASCII based comment form for figures and
attach the information into that form. The ASCII based comment form also
works for long text edits. For edits that span multiple sections of a
clause, you can generate multiple comments.
It is preferred that we don't reference reflector emails for comments, as
this can make the process of generating the comment printouts and the
comment database a very arduous task. I'd rather have 100 one-page comments
instead of one 100-page comment.
Thanks,
Brad

Subject: Re: ballot and comment process...
I have about 50 comments on clause 52 including some figures to be inserted
and
significant rewrites of some sections. I haven't tried to put the figures
in
the comments, but my guess is that this won't work, and it will be difficult
to
read some of the longer sections (formatting issues). Is there another
method
of doing this. Eg write a comment pointing to an E-mail attachment that is
sent
to the reflector?
