.B POSIX.1-200x, SUSv4
Work on the next revision of POSIX.1/SUS is near completion.
The balloting on the revision is expected to be completed in 2008,
so that the revision is likely to be named POSIX.1-2008.
.B POSIX.1-2008, SUSv4
Work on the next revision of POSIX.1/SUS was completed and
ratified in 2008.
The changes in this revision are not as large as those
that occurred for POSIX.1-2001/SUSv3,
but a number of new interfaces are added
and various details of existing specifications are modified.
Many of the interfaces that were optional in
POSIX.1-2001 become mandatory in the next revision of the standard.
POSIX.1-2001 become mandatory in the 2008 revision of the standard.
A few interfaces that are present in POSIX.1-2001 are marked
as obsolete in POSIX.1-2008, or removed from the standard altogether.
