The main item of concern is the editorial change to = publish 9945 as a single document and thus a single part, so a 2008 = standard would just be ISO 9945:2008

At the moment we are planning to make these changes = for our next draft, and will commence the editorial work on that in May = 2007. More detail is

below:

Organization of the text
------------------------
Previously the 9945:200x standard has been a single = standard at IEEE and The Open Group but arranged as four parts at ISO = -- each separate publications each with their individual introductions = and indices. This was primarily a production limitation in handling = such a large document. Within the four parts we had introduction = section that duplicated information or just pointed back to text within = the first volume (Base Definitions).

We have changed to a new typesetting system and can = now typeset the single text as one with full cross references across = the whole of the book (all 3600 pages +). We are thus proposing in our = next draft to remove  the duplicated pages and to only have a = single Introduction chapter (with the  usual Scope , Conformance, = Normative References etc) and a single large index.

So the single 9945 book would be arranged

Introduction
Base Definitions text
System Interfaces text
Shell and Utilities text
Rationale
Index

The single .pdf publication also now allows for = enhanced book marking and live cross reference links within the = text.
