[SystemSafety] Making Standards available to Standards Committees

[Thomas Netter]

Dear Gergely,

It's actually worse than that: only one library in the small town of 
Sion in Switzerland, the rich country where the IEC's headquarters are 
located, holds a digital copy of 61508 on a CD. And it's so precious 
they won't lend it out.

Switzerland's largest and richest engineering schools in Zurich and 
Lausanne don't have a copy despite having professors teaching about 
systems safety.

Best regards,

-Thomas
