Further Information 
Up to three URLs to related information.

One approach is to give three URL's covering the following three information areas:

  • A definitive/official source of the standard specification
  • An informal definition of the standard area (e.g. Wikipedia, note that links to Wikipedia should be used with caution, but it can still provide useful information.)
  • Short briefing papers on the standard area that bridge the gap between 1 and 2 (e.g. QA Focus or CETIS briefing sheets).
