The contents of the blue books will not necessarily be identical
to the AP final reports.  In the 1984 books, for example, the AP
document had some mistakes in the description of closed user groups
for X.25 (X.300, I believe), which was fixed in the Red books.
The corrections are generally of an editorial nature, however.

The AP documents can be freely distributed, however.
