to do that, of which I'm sure you're well aware, and similar considerations
apply in a lot of technical areas.>

BTW. No one has mentioned one bit of the nitty gritty of this particular world standard, but don't most standards insist on 24 hour clock time? Do the world standard organizations believe that they will get the world to use a 24 hour clock in everyday life? (Note that at one point I tried to get Lojbanists to consider a 24 hour clock as an option, but the community outvoted me.)
