We've been reviewing British Standards for tree planting and tree care for decades. Google BS5837 or BS3998 for example.
Glad to hear it! I did not know how open that process is; jolly good.
Nick, it's the column on the right, titled (oddly enough) "Public Review". On the planting one for instance, you could scroll thru the first part and stop at maybe 63.5.2.2 on page 12. If you were an experienced palm planter who always dug 12" from the trunk after seeing palms with smaller rootballs die time after time, you could suggest a change from 6" minimum to 12". Or conversely if you moved them successfully at 5" or 1", that might be worth commenting on. that's a CA example for ya. As for how to comment--you're right, the comment form is not to be found on that page! Should be under FAQs, if not on its own...I'll attach it, and bring that to their attention--thanks for noticing!
Darin, I agree it is not joyful, and it is legalistic language. Since it can apply to contracts, i think it kinda hasta be. The devil is in the details, but also imo is the angel of good guidance, though it does take careful reading.
Burnham, the printed version does have images. I don't know why they are not in the draft. That would be a good comment to make--more images! There is also a move afoot to put a decision-making kind of flow chart in the front of each standard.
