-
- To get the register of the POSIX implementations which have been tested
- by an accredited POSIX testing lab by email, and whose test results
- have been validated by NIST, do the following (using /usr/ucb/mail as
- an example):
-
- mail posix@nist.gov
- Subject: anything
- path yourname@yournode
- send register
- end
- .
-
- To get the testing policy, add "send policy"; to get the testing
- requirements, add "send requirements".
-
- Everyone and their clone have announced POSIX-compliancy RSN. BFD.
