Hopefully I'll be able to make it to Singapore 
and help to address both of these issues.

On your first item regarding customizing (our 
committee's new word for "subsetting" since some 
may have some extensions as well as subsets), 
just this week and next I'm gaining valuable 
experience implementing the Danish 
Customization.  I'll be able to take this to the 
meeting and review what I've learned with other committee members.

On your second item regarding stylesheets, if we 
can put some time aside to revive the HISC and 
have the committee produce formatting 
specifications in Singapore, then it won't be 
long after before stylesheet writers (including 
myself) can respond to those specifications.  If 
you recall what has been said in the past about 
the work of the former FPSC, the committee's 
objective is to equip implementers with enough 
information for them to do implementations.  This 
is thought to leverage the volunteer work of the 
committee to do all of the necessary 
interpretations of UBL that would otherwise be 
unknown to implementers, thus giving those 
outside of the committee all they need to apply 
their expertise with the stylesheet technologies 
to actually produce the formatting processes.
