MIL-STD
We follow military standards and specifications but do not participate in public consultations. There just are not that many.

We identify the domain here; and examine how the "mission oriented" library enlightens understanding of our own.
Group A Model Building Codes
Military installations depend upon much of the same technical infrastructure and consensus standards that sustain civilian educational settlements, supplemented by requirements particular to national defense. Public input on the Group A tranche of titles will be received until January 12th.

We monitor the action continuously to formulate response to public consultations. Topics appear on our CALENDAR and explored every day at 15:00 UTC.
