I just saw that the effective date of the acceptable status codes 
(1-Jul-2021) was added to section 1.2.1 in the revisions table which is 
incorrect. In my understanding this is not a place to add normative 
requirements and besides, it only captures the effective date of the 
full version of the document, not a specific requirement.

Therefore, I'm afraid HARICA must vote NO to this ballot.


Dimitris.
