- A.3 The Role of POSIX SPs
-
- In 6.3.3.5, a classification scheme was given for profiles in which 3
- different ``types'' were identified. That scheme is based, essentially,
- on the scope covered by the profile. Another useful classification
- scheme, based on scope and on who develops the profiles, is presented in
- this annex.
-
- Figure A-1 shows these classes of profiles and the relationships between
- them and base standards.

- Base standards cover a universe of diverse needs. POSIX base standards
- (e.g., POSIX.1 {2}, P1003.4, ...) cover a narrower set of needs related
- to ``POSIX.'' In the figure, the POSIX base standards are shown as a
