Instructions will be posted, but basically you'll send a request for interpretation of a particular point in the C Standard to the X3 Secretariat of CBEMA, referring to ANSI Std X3.159-1989 (we hope it's -1989!). Make sure you actually do need an interpretation, because many of the questions people have been answering have clear answers in the Standard and may receive essentially a "RTFS" reply, or perhaps "RTFR" (R=Rationale).
