- The IEEE approved Standard 1003.5 in June, and we've been going
- through a pre-publication cleanup. The document is at the printer,
- and you can order a copy from IEEE. In fact, it should be back from
- the printer this week and shipp.ing
-
- It is "IEEE Standard 1003.5:1992", and it costs $67.50 (nonmembers,
- IEEE members $47.75). Call the IEEE Order Desk at (800) 678 IEEE
- (+1 800 678 4333).
-
- Per IEEE policy, the document is not available via FTP; you have to
- buy a copy from the IEEE. We are trying to convince the IEEE that it
- is appropriate for them to make the package specifications available
- via FTP. Please send email to M.Phillips@ieee.org if you would like
- to see this happen.
-
- I think this should be added to the comp.lang.ada FAQ list.

- There were a lot of changes from Draft 7 to Draft 8 as a result of the
- ballot. The publication version would be known as "Draft 10". There
- were only editorial changes after Draft 8.
