Part one of ISO 24610 was published last year: this is the part that 
deals with feature structure representation. It is the same text as the 
TEI P5 chapter, with some additional tutorial material. Work on the 
second part (feature system declaration) has not progressed very far, 
but there is a draft out for ballot right now, which is also essentially 
the same as the chapter published in TEI P5.

The TEI hosts at Nancy, together with the INIST, succeeded in getting a 
grant from a French infrastructural initiative called ADONIS, the 
purpose of which is to develop a network of TEI expertise in France. A 
preliminary planning meeting in Paris was well attended by nearly 20 
people from seven or eight different institutions, many of whom had not 
previously met.  The intention is to share expertise via a wiki and a 
new mailing list (tei-res) , and also to organize a training workshop to 
be held this October.  Any French-speaker with TEI expertise or interest 
is warmly invited to participate in the network: go to
https://listes.cru.fr/sympa/subscribe/tei-res.

The French were particularly interested in the idea of "TEI Stylesheets 
pour les nuls"

Yes. Who's maintaining that website, I ask?
Anyway, the 2006 report is here:

http://www.tei-c.org/Membership/Meetings/2006-Victoria/mm06councilreport.xml

In 2007, the chair didn't table a written report to members (instead we gave a rather fine presentation about P5); there was a brief oral report in the business meeting, reported in the minutes from that which are at http://www.tei-c.org/Membership/Meetings/2007-Maryland/mm44.xml
