<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>Soon, I will
circulate proposed responses to some of the comments we received for the DCOR1
set ballot. However, 105 of the 161 comments from that ballot will NOT be
addressed in that posting, for the reason described below:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>There were 74
comments from BR (on all 4 parts) that said something like, “Move the proposal
to an Amendment, because the proposed change could break compatibility with
existing implementations”<o:p></o:p></span></p>

compatibility with existing implementations,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>the change is not

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>I propose that we do

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>“Technical corrigenda
inherently address technical issues identified with the standard. As
such, it is virtually impossible to have them avoid impacting existing
implementations. That said, WG4 understands the necessity of providing a
stable standard for implementers and, as such, has acted in good faith to limit
changes proposed via technical corrigenda to those which would *<b>not</b>*
break existing files. No change will be made.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
