In order to compare the current 1194.21 and 1194.22 with the ISO standard,
it would help to have a side-by-side comparison: for each provision (of both
508 and ISO):

its closest correspondent in the other standard
important differences between them
reasons why one is "better" than the other (a dialog)
etc.

Is there such a document now, or any precursors? I realize this is a lot of
work, but I imagine it would be useful, and not only to us.
