5　Tasks for standardization

All the tasks required for standardization are categorized in table 1, where the vertical axis shows task phase including strategy, development, implementing and promotion, and the horizontal axis shows standard type including de jure standards, forum/consortium standards, de facto/company-product standards and houserules.

Standard types are defined in clause 3.4 through 3.7 from the task classification's point of view. The task phases are not always standard development steps themselves. They may be carried out concurrently or cyclically.

Each task of standardization in a cell of Table 1 is assigned with a sequential number (task number).
