I have discovered that it is out of print. However, The Open Group has made the work available on the web in HTML form, free of charge; to view it, you mist register and agree to their terms of access: http://www.opengroup.org/online-pubs?DOC=007908799&FORM=HTML One of the terms may be problematic; on the other hand, the FreeBSD Foundation may be able to request and successfully otain permission; here is the problematic term: | You are permitted to read the HTML and PDF versions of Open | Group publications using your HTML browser/Acrobat software | and to download them for your own personal use provided you | have given your name and email address for each publication | requested. However, you are NOT permitted to amend, copy, | reprint, offer for sale, or otherwise re-use material from these | documents without explicit permission from The Open Group. The print document that I have in hand (literally, in lap) would certainly allow what I have suggested under Fair Use doctorine. I will look for a source of copies of the printed version (Amazon appears to not have any, used or otherwise, nor does Computer Literacy [Fat Brain], whis=ch is where I picked my copy up). -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
