[comp.sys.mips] RISC/os 4.00 and SVID3 Conformance

dowlati@granite.cr.bull.com (Saadat Dowlati) (02/03/90)

The RISC/os 4.00 (and 4.20) Release Notes states conformance to portions
of SVID, Issue 3. I have contacted AT&T a couple of times regarding SVID3
very recently and have been told there's no such thing yet. I would like 
to know whether this is a typo or is there a draft of SVID3? If the latter,
how/where can I get a copy of that? Thanks in advance.

      This was a typo in the release notes.  RISC/os 4.00 conforms
to System V Interface Definition (SVID), Issue 2, to the extent described
in the release notes.   SVID Issue 2 corresponds to System V Release 3,
and SVID Issue 3 will correspond to System V Release 4.
