A significant new implementation of Extended Pascal has been made available. Status of Standards: Project 22.08: The current standard is ISO/IEC 7185:1990, Information technology, Programming languages - Pascal. (That is, unextended Pascal.) This standard is very well established. In a recent ballot, J9 voted to recommend to NCITS that the US implementation be reaffirmed as the Pascal standard. Project 22.19: The current standard is ISO/IEC 10206:1991, Information technology, Programming languages - Extended Pascal. J9 do not at present anticipate any development of this standard, apart from some clarificiation and minor corrections. Other matters: An implementation of ISO/IEC 10206 Extended Pascal, including the Object Oriented additions defined in the Technical Report (ANSI X3.TR-13.1994), is now available for Windows NT and WIndows 95. It complements earlier versions for OS/2 and DOS. (The latter does not have Objects.) No SC22 actions relating to Pascal are requested at this time.
