How, if to proceed?

The TC100 should proceed with a Technical Report (TR). Generally, the IEC TC100 members differ as to the content of the TR. The Project Team should discuss the content of a TR. The range of topics include functional requirements, designs (methods of measurement), explain the basics-variations-options, and develop / publish techniques to self declare product functions for usability.
