(February 17, 2009) The RTEMS Project has been granted permission by the IEEE and Open Group to excerpt and reuse text from the Open Group Base Specification Issue 6 in the RTEMS POSIX API User's Guide and RTEMS Shell User's Guide. This is a major milestone and grants the RTEMS Project the same permissions the GNU/Linux man pages projects and NetBSD have. A scanned copy of the agreement with the signature page removed is available online. We would like to offer our thanks to those who helped in this effort.
