What is the status of the other groups? More accurately, there were three subcommittees: language, library, and environment. The latest draft includes all three.

The library folks have added some minor things to the C library we all know and love, but nothing deep and momentous. -- Henry Spencer @ U of Toronto Zoology {allegra,ihnp4,linus,decvax}!utzoo!henry
