All A quick update on this. We have updated the links at the restricted area behind
https://www.opengroup.org/austin/login.html and they now include a link to the pdf of the “Latest Issue 8 Interim Build Draft”. This is updated whenever the Issue8 branch ci/cd pipeline is executed. As noted on the draft, please do not use it for bug reporting; also note this is the raw build output so does not contain full front matter, pdf properties, sequential pdf page numbering that we usually do as post process when issuing a review draft. regards Andrew > On 28 Jun 2023, at 10:08, Andrew Josey via austin-group-l at The Open Group > <[email protected]> wrote: > > hi all > > Thanks for the feedback.
