COMMENT PERIOD CLOSING! Message-ID: <4254@hoptoad.uucp> Date: 27 Mar 88 13:36:57 GMT Organization: Grasshopper Group in San Francisco Lines: 26 The "Public Review" period for the current ANSI C draft ends April 12, 1988. If you have complaints about the current state of the standard, from nits all the way up to non-negotiable demands about noalias, write them down, make three copies, and send two of them [FedEx if you're late] to: X3 Secretariat/CBEMA 311 First Street, NW, Suite 500 Washington, DC 20001 and Board of Standards Review American National Standards Institute 1430 Broadway New York, NY 10018 The Board of Standards Review in particular wants to hear about defects in the *process* of creating a standard; their job is to make sure that the process was fair and followed all the rules. They will hear from me about the lack of machine readable review copies...care to lend your voice too? You can get a copy of the standard for $65 by calling Global Engineering Documents at +1 800 854 7179 or +1 714 261 1455, extension 300. -- {pyramid,ptsfa,amdahl,sun,ihnp4}!hoptoad!gnu gnu@toad.com "Watch me change my world..." -- Liquid Theatre
