5.11.1  Individual tasks, requirements, or test methods.  When there are many individual tasks, requirements, or test methods in a standard, they may be presented as individual or common groups of requirements under a task, requirement, or test method numbered identifier appearing in numerical sequence after section 6 and before any appendix (see figures 3 and 4 as examples).  In such instances, section 5 would usually serve as a pointer to the individual tasks, requirements, or test methods.  Any numbering system may be used, but shall provide for consecutive numbering upon revising the task, requirement, or test method.  For example:

a.  If a requirement is numbered 204 for the first issue, the first revision could be 204A, the second revision 204B, and so forth.

b.  If a requirement is numbered 1100 for the first issue, the first revision could be

1100.1, the second revision 1100.2, and so forth.

c.  Pages, tables, and figures may be numbered consecutively within each individual task/requirement/test method.

5.12  SECTION 6 - NOTES.  Section 6 is not contractually binding.  No requirements shall be included.  It shall only contain information of a general or explanatory nature.  Such information shall assist in determining the applicability of the standard, additional superseding data, changes in classification, and other information deemed appropriate.  Figure 5 provides an example of section 6.  This section shall include the following in the order listed, as applicable:

a.  Parenthetical note (see 5.12.1). b.  Intended use  (see 5.12.2).

c.  Acquisition requirements (see 5.12.3). d.  Associated DIDs (see 5.12.4).

i.  Subject term (key word) listing (see 5.12.9).

j.  International standardization agreement implementation (see 5.12.10). k.  Identification of changes (see 5.12.11).
