The only change from what?  The only change from the version of ECMA-404
referenced in draft-ietf-jsonbis-rfc7159bis-02?  That document, available at
www.ecma-international.org/publications/files/ECMA-ST/ECMA-404.pdf, doesn't
mention rfc7159bis at all.  If there is a draft version of a revised ECMA-404
that only needs a pointer updated, then that version needs to be made
available so that reviewers of draft-ietf-jsonbis-rfc7159bis-02 can determine
whether this document is suitable for normative use in rfc7159bis.

As far as can be determined from draft-ietf-jsonbis-rfc7159bis-02 there has
been no work on ECMA-404 since October 2013.  It thus appears that all the
changes in rfc7159bis will have to be made and approved before any changes to
ECMA-404 have even been drafted.
