TCOS-SS Rules&Regs ballot and ftping POSIX documents

[Lawrence J. Samuels]

As a member of the TCOS/SS ballot group, I just received a ballot,
"Approval of TCOS-SS Operating Procedures", dated May 6, 1991.
It covers rules and regs for the TCOS-SS, as you may guess.

I'm taking advantage of this ballot and its section 4.2, Distribution
of Documents, to encourage making POSIX standards and drafts
available by anonymous ftp.  I recall some discussion in this
group on suitable means of doing this.

I don't want to start a discussion on the pros and cons of 
doing this - that's been covered before.  My intent in making this
posting is to remind people interested in seeing this done
that now is a time to make an 'official' comment about it.

Ballots and comments in reply to the ballots are sent to:
