The latest meeting of the ISO working group TC42 WG28 took place on October 14^th at Apple in Cupertino, California. During the meeting the current standard draft was revised and commented on. The following things were discussed:

• The document still needs to be reviewed for ISO terminology
• The scope of the current document is inconsistent with the scope in form 4 (document N6). The scope of form 4 should be used. Especially mentioning the machine vision application in the scope is important.
• Exporting the document in word format seems to lead to strange looking formulae and the group hopes that ISO fixes that in the final publication.

After the discussion the draft was transferred to a working draft study (Stage 20.20) and was open for comments until November 3^rd.  Addressing the comments is now possible until end of 2025. A second commenting period will last from beginning of January until end of January. Addressing these comments will then be possible until the next meeting of the group which is scheduled at CIPA in Tokyo February 24^th to 27^th with WG28 most likely meeting in the afternoon of Feb. 24^th Tokyo time. The meeting thereafter will be in Boulder, Colorado USA, June 1^st to 4^th, 2026.
