Can anyone provide me with, presumably, an NBS contact that I can obtain the most recent copy of NBS Special Publication 500-150 from? I need a copy of the Stable Implementation Agreements for OSI Protocols. Any help would be much appreciated.

Can anyone provide me with, presumably, an NBS contact that I can obtain the most recent copy of NBS Special Publication 500-150 from? NBS is now NIST, National Institute of Standards and Technology. I do not have a phone number, but you want to contact the Superintendent of Documents, US Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402. However, Publication 500-150? Is that the 1987 version (Version 1)? My 1988 version (Version 2) is Publication 500-162, Edition 3. Further, a new version (Version 3) is soon to be published. You might want to wait about 1 month before you order. Jim

To get the most recent version and edition of the SA you have to do two things. First, order the current published SA, which is Version 2, Edition 1 (Dec 88) and can be purchased from the Gov't Printing Office (they take Mastercard and Visa...I'm serious). GPO's phone number is (202)783-3238. Order: Stable Implementation Agreements for Open Systems Interconnection Protocols, Version 2, Edition 1 NIST Special Publication #500-162 December, 1988 GPO Stock #003-003-02921-1 Second, call Brenda Gray (NIST) at (301)975-3664 and ask her to send the change pages to bring your SA up to V2E4. Note that V2E4 is essentially V3E1. V3E1 will be distributed at the March Workshop, but will not be available from GPO until about May, 1990. Regards, Richard
