Its an administrative rollup revision purely since the IEEE edition of the standard was due to timeout this year, and we did not have time to finish the full revision that we have planned (expected to complete 2020/2021). The rollup revision is technically identical down to the line numbers, so POSIX 1003.1-2017 = ISO/IEC 9945:2009 plus the two technical corrigenda. The plan was noted in the 2017 project editor report http://www.opengroup.org/austin/docs/austin_826.txt We need to discuss with the ISO/IEC SC22 ORs whether there is a wish to ballot such a rollup at ISO/IEC. At The Open Group a resolution to adopt the resulting publication into The Open Group Standards Information Base has been submitted. We instructed IEEE not to submit the publication down the PSDO route to ISO/IEC. regards Andrew -------- Andrew Josey The Open Group Austin Group Chair Email: a.jo...@opengroup.org Apex Plaza, Forbury Road,Reading,Berks.RG1 1AX,England Tel:+44 118 9023044
