As I indicated in an earlier message, I regard organisations at the 
national as important stakeholders. Hence, to exclude this reference is 
too drastic. I fully expect *all* specific stakeholders to have views 
that are suboptimal -- national as well as international. The work of 
the XG is to see what knowledge about the domain exists out there, 
evaluate it, and see what of this can contribute to emerging standards 
and what cannot be used. That is, do not a-priori make certain 
groups/organisations be put out-of-scope.
