That's an interesting thought -- I don't know if there are any ANSI or
ISO rules that address recording meetings.  And I'm not sure how useful
it would be since it would be very difficult to know who said what,
or, depending on the quality of the recording, even what was said.

It's hard to know.  Usual problems are work schedules, travel budget
freezes, and corporate policies about overseas travel.

No.  This is one of the things that gives the Secretary fits.  Since
the minutes usually identifies people by their last name, Derek Jones
from the UK and I create a similar problem.  (When Bill Plauger was
Secretary, he dubbed me "Jones the Greater" and Derek "Jones the
Lesser", but Derek object and requested that he be referred to instead
as "Jones the Less Than or Equal To".)

Membership in ANSI is by company -- voting is yes if the company has
applied for voting membership, paid all the relevent fees, and been
represented at 2 of the last three meetings (counting the current
meeting).

Bill is no longer a member of X3J11.  As Convener of WG14, his job is to
moderate and facilitate.  As I understand it (other J11/WG14 members
please correct me if I'm wrong), he does not represent any country and
has no vote.
