Compared to using a word document, things like creating sections and clauses and linking terms and cross references is so much easier. What’s more, having everyone work from one single document is really beneficial."</p> <p style="font-size:16px; color:#0194cb;">Valara M Davis</p> <p style="font-size:12px; font-style:italic;">IEC TC 108: Safety of electronic equipment within the field of audio/video, information technology and communication technology.</p> </div> </div> </blockquote> </div>  <div class="item"> <blockquote> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-8 col-sm-offset-2"> <p>"We had a recommendation for improvement which we sent to the IEC which was that whenever a comment was made in a document, I should get a notification. But when the team reviewed it, they said I could get bombarded with notifications, so they introduced the pause commenting feature. I appreciate that they were very proactive. From the recommendation I made they actioned it with this new functionality."</p> <p style="font-size:16px; color:#0194cb;">Johnson Marema</p> <p style="font-size:12px; font-style:italic;">NC Secretary for South Africa</p> </div> </div> </blockquote> </div>  <div class="item"> <blockquote> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-8 col-sm-offset-2"> <p>"The document commenting and resolution feature is an example of the outstanding usefulness of the online authoring tool, allowing multiple people who are commenting to effectively interact with the document during preparation.<br> This includes everything from technical inputs to editorial comments, ranging from informational to Part 2 inconsistencies.
