Progress:
Its sole project the Revision of the Green Book: Quantities, Units and Symbols in Physical Chemistry consists of preparation of the third edition. The typing of the whole text into a standard computer-readable format (Revtex) is taking time. It is being carried out under the supervision of M. Quack and a meeting of I.1 is planned for January 1999 in order to finalize the text and get it to the printers. The main changes with respect to the second edition, except for producing the book on a computer, involve extensions in the field of surface chemistry and the treatment of uncertainties of measurement.

A complete draft document was submitted to public review comments until 31 March 2006.
