Charles proposed

• It is proposed to submit this New Work Item both
  to the DICOM Committee and ISO TC 215.
• The DICOM Committee will establish an Ad-hoc
  Working Group to which this NWI will be assigned.
  This group will be called Medical Imaging Web
  Access WG.
• ISO member bodies will be offered to nominate
  experts to the Medical Imaging Web Access Ad hoc
  WG. These nominated experts will be granted the
  same rights as DICOM nominated experts (e.g.
  voting is done within meetings and quorum
  excludes experts having missed two consecutive
  meetings).
• The group will produce a DICOM Standard
  Supplement.
• The DICOM Public Comment procedures will include
  ISO TC 215 nominated experts to this group as
  well as TC215 WG2 members.
• The Chair of this group and the Editor for this
  work item will be selected by its members. To
  launch this group, Hidenori Shinoda (Japan member
  body representative to TC215 WG 2) and Nick Brown
  (UK member body representative to TC215 WG 2) are
  proposed as interim co-chairs and Emmanuel
  Cordonnier (DICOM WG 10) as interim editor.
• This group will meet at least once a year at the
  common meeting between ISO TC215/WG2 and
  DICOM/WG10.
• The resulting standard will be balloted both as a
  DICOM Standard and an ISO TC 215 standard. This
  new work item will be executed by an ad-hoc group
  of DICOM WG6 the Base Standards Working Group.
  This Medical Imaging Web Access AWG will operate
  under the DICOM procedures extended to take into
  account direct involvement of ISO TC 215.
