One of the outcomes of the Monsoon Summit was not only a great indication of interest in standardisation practices and also the need for the Indian print community to "get into the tent." That is, to become a part of the ongoing standards discussion in the TC 130 committee of the ISO. IppStar is initiating with industry help and approval, a local discussion group that will send representatives to the TC 130 committee starting with the meeting in Beijing from 21 to 25 September 2009. This discussion group will also interact with the Bureau of Indian Standards and hopefully evolve into a technical advisory group. If you would like to be part of this discussion please send your email to Parshav Jain at standards@ippgroup.in . In addition we are launching an experts blog on Best Practices, Colour Management, and Standardisation on our website.
We are hoping that this blog will become a how to discussion among experts in India and the Asia Pacific Region that will discuss not only standardisation but other technical issues pertaining to the printing industry. We will also be running two other blogs: the first will be a general and all-inclusive type of discussion called the Print Asia Blog and the second, a publishing blog that takes up some of the professional and 'backroom' issues in publishing' which will be called 'Content and Media -- Asia Pacific.' All the blogs will be team blogs with experts from primarily the Asia Pacific region invited to lead the conversations. If you would like to be invited to be one of the regular team bloggers please write to edit5@ippgroup.in .
