Rex,

I have one small thought as I get started looking at links from Part 4 to Part 1.  We eliminated most of the Terms and Definitions in Part 4, rather than repeating those in Part 1 -- but we did not add a note pointing to Part 1 Terms and Definitions.  There is an existing note that refers to Part 2 (in both Part 1 and Part 4).  I find myself thinking that there should be a reference in Part 4 to the Terms and Definitions section in Part 1.  It looks odd to point to Part 2 but not to Part 1.   Is that something you can do at this stage?

Rex> Yes, I see no reason to not improve that non-normative text. How about changing the current Note, "[Note: This part uses OPC-related terms, which are defined in ISO/IEC 29500-2. end note]" to "[Note: This part uses terms defined in ISO/IEC 29500-1 and ISO/IEC 29500-2. end note]"?
