Yes. POSIX.5b has a dark green cover and has been sitting on my desk for over a year now. >From , one of the best information sources about Ada on the Web: The POSIX.5b standard IEEE Std 1003.5b-1996 Standard for Information Technology--POSIX Ada Language Interfaces--Part 1: Binding for System Applications Program Interface (API), 550 pages, ISBN 1-55937-758-5, USD 112 (for IEEE members), order code SH94432-NYF can be ordered from IEEE Publications, phone +1-732-981-1393 (1-800-678-IEEE), fax +1-732-981-9667, or from IEEE Computer Society Publications, 10662 Los Vaqueros Circle, PO Box 3014, Los Alamitos, CA 90720-1264, USA, phone +1-714-821-8380, fax +1-714-821-4010. You might also want to have a quick look at a draft of POSIX.5c (which adds TCP/IP sockets etc., but is not yet implemented in Florist) on http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/volatile/ I don't know whether this one has already been published in a final version.
