After having recently posted the minutes of the ECMA TC-33 committee
standardizing a Portable Common Tool Environment, I received a number of
requests for information on obtaining copies of the current PCTE
specifications. 

Copies of the PCTE Interface specifications can be obtained from:

    Werner Wohlschlegel
    Commission of the European Communities 
    DGXII/A4 
    Rue De La Loi 200
    B-1049 BRUSSELS
    Belgium

	You should be aware that there are two versions of the specification
currently available. The C language bindings and the Ada language bindings.
Be sure to specify which bindings you want or ask for both. (Frankly, the
Ada version is much, much easier to read...)

	It is my intention to keep sending copies of the minutes of TC33
to the comp.software-eng group. However, if you want more detailed information,
you could ask the ECMA secretariat to put you on the interest list for TC33.
If you want to do this, contact:

	C. Brockway, Secretary TC33
	ECMA Headquarters
	Rue du Rhone 114
	CH-1204 GENEVA
	Switzerland

	Telex: 22.288
	Phone: +41 22 35.36.34
	Fax: +41 22 86.52.31
