The OSI reference list is growing and getting richer. In fact,
in the future, I'll break it into three separate lists of BOOKS,
Periodicals, or Products for posting.
Please keep sending me your information, and as soon as there
is enough updates, I'll post a summary.
Following is an up-to-date list. The new additions have been
identified on the RIGHT MARGIN with "|".
