I don't necessarily consider this search and replace to be appropriate.  All 
information for users looking for SQL:1999 compliance information is now 
lost.  Also, phrases like "This is conforming to SQL:2003." give the wrong 
impression that it is not conforming to SQL:1999.  I think it would be less 
confusing in these cases to simply write "This is conforming to the SQL 
standard." and then mention in the appendix that we consider SQL:2003 to be 
the baseline.
