Subject: RE: [sarif] Re: Research on keyword usage


Sorry for the typos. Yes, in my point #1 I meant “ISO-readiness”, and in my point #3 I meant SHALL,  not SHOULD.

 

And in my point #4, I meant we should discuss my point #3 (maintaining current wording), not “Issue #3”.

      Yes, I will, but I think you mean "ISO readiness."

      I think you mean "shall" instead of "should" in the last sentence.

      Just to make sure I understand this, do you mean this issue?
