ANSI attended a meeting with congressional staffers from the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on the Judiciary, Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property, and the Internet. Meeting was to follow up on a January 14, 2014, hearing entitled, "The Scope of Copyright Protection." Since ANSI’s January 2014 testimony, a number of developments have taken place with respect to the broad issue of incorporation by reference (IBR) of standards into regulation.
