Note that it is not just a translation; it is a French standard, and an
integral part of the ISO standard 8652:1987 (at that time, standards had
to be published in two languages, with equal standardization status).

Actually, the reason why the ISO standard is 4 years older than the ANSI
standard is that it had to wait for the french translation.
