We are waiting for some project editors to get their latest revisions finished before we start another round of balloting in the SC 31/WG 7. Meanwhile in SC 31/WG 4/SG 3 we have a new CD ballot for ISO/IEC 18000-4 underway with a new mode included. If you want more information on ISO standardization or on any issue of RFID standardization, then email steve@hightechaid.com.
