<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&quot;Courier New&quot;,serif">IMHO, If the ANSI Editor sees no problem with publishing SBC-4 as shown in r22, then my preference would be to avoid a third public review by leaving the SBC-4 annexes
 as they are in the SBC-4 working draft that T10 has forwarded to INCITS. If an organization that is called upon to cast a Letter Ballot vote on the proposed second public review for SBC-4 chooses to No-vote the ballot and request that the annex be moved, however,
 then that would be a different kettle of fish.<br>
