<Also, has anyone used the BSI's "The principles of good practice for
information management" (see
*http://www.bsi-global.com/ICT/IM/pd0010.xalter *)? Can you comment on
its
practical usefulness or perhaps provide a copy?>

BSI is the British Standards Institute - the U.K. version of ANSI.  The
standards it produces are specific to the U.K., just as ANSI standards
are specific to the U.S.  Many BSI and ANSI standards are reformatted
and submitted for consideration as ISO standards, but once accepted they
then become an ISO number standard.  Like ANSI and ISO, all BSI
standards can only be obtained by purchase (see
http://www.bsi-global.com/index.xalter).  Also like ANSI and ISO, BSI
standards have strict copyright and usage rules.

Unfortunately, Mr. Dellow's e-mail address does not appear in your
posting, so I cannot respond to him.
