Hello,

This was posted recently to the OpenWatcom newsgroup:
_______
  For people who don't have IEEE 754 and don't feel like shelling out 
fifty bucks for it at the ANSI web store (I know I don't), the standard 
can be found on this page:

  http://754r.ucbtest.org/

  The 754r is a work-in-progress update and merge of IEEE 754 and 
IEEE-854 (decimal floating-point). As far as I can tell, IEEE 754 is the 
same thing as IEC 60559, which is heavily referenced by the C99 standard.


         Michal

Also for those of you unaware but interested in taking a look, the OpenSolaris
libm was finally made available under Sun's opensource license.

cheers,

   Pedro.
