<h2><font size="5" face="Arial">Open Group Publications on
the Web</font></h2>
<h3><font size="3" face="Arial">An explanation and terms for
access to HTML and PDF documents</font></h3>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial">We are pleased to be able to
publish X/Open Specifications and Guides on the World Wide
Web.&nbsp;&nbsp; The first html titles correspond to hard copy publications
since&nbsp; January 1997.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial">Our policy is to convert our
Specifications into HTML 3.2 using tables and other
facilities which can be accessed through the most popular web
browsers. </font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial">We ask readers to give us
their name and email address for a number of reasons: </font></p>
<ul>
<li><font size="2" face="Arial">To enable us to gauge the
interest in any particular document/subject area</font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Arial">To enable us to alert you
to new editions of the specification</font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Arial">To enable us to send you
details of any corrigenda</font></li>
</ul>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial">The documents are available

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

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. </font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Arial">Whilst The Open Group
will use its best endeavors to create HTML/PDF versions
that mirror the hard copy publications, there are
bound to be differences between the versions. The
hard copy publication remains the authoritative
version for Testing and Certification and other purposes.</font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Arial">The Open Group reserves
the right to charge for HTML/PDF&nbsp; versions of its
publications in the future.</font></li>
<li><font size="2" face="Arial">Readers who acquire the
HTML/PDF version of The Open Group publications from a
source other than The Open Group should be conscious
of the fact that HTML/PDF is a revisable format and that
the un-official, probably illegal, version they
acquire might have been changed from the original.</font></li>
