our standard has always ("always" is relative here; let's say "current") been the bash superset of POSIX ... if a request comes up where someone wants to change code because it breaks in their shell but the code in question is POSIX compliant, the answer is simple: blow me if the request is reasonable like stop using some bashism in favor of the POSIX form and the change isnt invasive, then sure we'll generally make the change -mike
