ISO Standard for Trustworthy Digital Repositories -  In one of Peter's RAIN posts there was a mention of the following:

> ISO 16363:2012 - Audit and certification of trustworthy digital repositories is now a published ISO standard. This work has been carried out under ISO TC20/SC13, of which the working arm is Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS). 
> The working group is continuing to work on the related standard - ISO/DIS 16919 - Requirements for bodies providing audit and certification of candidate trustworthy digital repositories. We are one step closer to having the infrastructure in place for ISO certification of trustworthy digital repositories.
> 
Has anyone from the Records Management community been active in that ISO arena?  I am interested to know if this is an effort to better police the technology and procedures of the Cloud?

Or is it something that would relate to the Media Vaults that store the actual tape back-ups.

Their summary in the article was not very descriptive and the ISO Publication is pretty expensive.  Has anyone here invested in it?  What community is it trying to regulate?
