 With respect to the request below and any other similar ones:

> I am looking for information on XPG's X/Open Transport Interface (XTI).
> Firstly, is it Posix compliant? If it is, what are the Unix vendors

 1. Since there is no POSIX standard for Detailed Network Interface yet,
    XTI can hardly comply with it. However, the P1003.12 group at POSIX has
    chosen XTI as one of its two C-lanuage binding alternatives for DNI.

 2. The XTI specification can be obtained by sending a cheque for USD 70.00
    + 22.50 for shipping and handling to

                   X/Open Company Limited (Publications)
                                P.O.Box 109
                            Penn, High Wycombe
                         Buckinghamshire HP10 8NP
                                England

    Please give reference XO/CAE/91/600 (XTI). Card numbers for American
    Express, VISA, Mastercard or Eurocard are also accepted.

 3. Technical enquiries about XTI issues should be sent electronically to
                        xoxti@xopen.co.uk

 4. The following companies have so far obtained the X/Open brand for their
    XTI products on X/Open-compliant UNIX systems: Bull, Fujitsu, ICL,
    Olivetti, Siemens/Nixdorf. In addition, there are several more
    implementations of XTI which I have heard about but which have not yet
    been turned into formally released products. The number of XTI products
    on the market is expected to increase dramatically when the X/Open XPG4
    branding scheme is announced in October.

 With the best regards,

 Petr Janecek
