Public review LSB 1.2 specification drafts

[Matt Taggart <taggart@debian.org>]

Hi debian-policy,

Version 1.2 of the Linux Standard Base specification is currently under 
review. Below are pointers to the drafts. Now is our chance to review and 
make sure that the standard is acceptable (especially from a Debian 
perspective). We've discovered that it's _much_ harder to change things 
after the spec is released than it is during the review period, so please 
take some time to look now.

Thanks,

Matt Taggart

Subject: Public review of new and updated LSB specification drafts

The v1.2-draft gLSB and archLSB-IA32 written specifications for Linux will 
be

Linux
community is invited to comment by Monday June 17th.

In addition, the LSB is introducing the architecture specification for 
32-bit
PowerPC.  The archLSB-PPC32 preliminary review will be in conjunction with 
the
gLSB and archLSB-IA32 update reviews.

Once adopted by the Free Standards Group, the LSB v1.2 will be the 
foundation
for LSB Certification that will begin on Monday July 1st.  We anticipate 
there
being LSB certified rutime environments available by the end of this summer.

As always, your contributions are welcomed.

George Kraft IV
LSB Chairman
