Make sure that you request the LATEST version (I think it's the July or

even though they had the newer version on hand.  Grr...

At a DC-area UNIX User's Group meeting last week, it was reported that the
X3J11 committee decided at its September meeting to release an *actual*
proposed standard (as opposed to the draft proposed standards that have
circulated up to now).  This actual proposed standard is supposed
to be available in a few weeks.  So you may want to wait before ordering
a copy of the standard.  (Surely availability of the actual standard will be
announced in mod.std.c.)
