I think its too early to have an AFD, we should wait to see if any appeals or other responses take place. 14 days is not enough even for those involved in the case to consider its findings, there is no way we should be responding especially as the standards are PD in the USA.

The CJEU today ruled for Carl Malamud against the European Commission in

I've therefore opened a discussion on Commons:

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/File:EN_301_549_V3.2.1_(2021-03).pdf

Some relevant snippets from the ruling:

«a harmonised standard, adopted on the basis of a directive [...] forms
part of EU law»

«the rule of law, which requires free access to EU law for all natural
or legal persons of the European Union»

«there is an overriding public interest [...] justifying the disclosure
of the requested harmonised standards»

«As is apparent [...] the Commission should have acknowledged [...] the
existence of an overriding public interest»

Best,
Federico
