            5       Conventions

            In this Supplement:
            The keywords "is required to" indicate a requirement which must be strictly followed and from which no
            deviation is permitted, if conformance to this Supplement is to be claimed.
            The keywords "is recommended" indicate a requirement which is recommended but which is not absolutely
            required. Thus, this requirement need not be present to claim conformance.
