re: pol abstractly 

@aescling @akjcv you know how new atheists are basically just christians who have chosen an ideological aesthetic which is reactionary to christianity without confronting its fundamental worldview? well, i have news about kids who rebelled against liberalism

@akjcv most leftists are also like this they just pick different aesthetics

@vaporeon_ for quickly finding it, searching “open group base issue 8” is the magic phrase, at least in duckduckgo

@vaporeon_ the bottom of the main introductory page links to previous versions going back to 2008, which is the first version of Issue 7 (it was revised and republished multiple times via application of “technical corrigenda”; i won’t pretend to understand their process)

the 2004 edition of issue 6 appears to be here: <pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/>; not sure if the original 2001 edition is still up/usable

however i usually just use the latest version (2024), and check the change history at the bottom of the page for a given feature to see if it was added recently or not. if i'm depending on functionality introduced after Issue 6, i make a note of it so people can confirm they have a compatible implementation

@vaporeon_ (you can only reliably depend on things from POSIX-2001 / Issue 6 and earlier on most operating systems tho; nobody claims POSIX-2024 / Issue 8 or even 2017 / Issue 7 compatibility. but some aspects do still have broad support)
