[SystemSafety] Making Standards available to Standards Committees

[Chris Hills]

" There are places called libraries where people may find a copy of this
document."

Clearly you have not tried to find a library recently, much less  one that
actually holds the ISO standards. 
This refers to the UK (5th largest economy in the world I am told) 
 
There is a problem with many/most/all(?)  Standards bodies who are in effect
simply specialised publishing houses .  A lot of them need an overhaul in
the way they *think* then the way they work.  

OTOH why should information/knowledge be free anyway?   Most of you make a
living selling [your] knowledge.

Peter,

To summarise:

You are not happy with accessibility to the IEC 61508 document and would
like other people to do something about it.

There are places called libraries where people may find a copy of this
document.

Perhaps we can now move on...
