Michael,
These standards are copyrighted, and ANSI.org is very clear about the
electronic copies being for personal use only, not to be shared.
Considering that, previously, you could not buy ISO C for less than
$300, having a standards organization that sees the light is a good
thing, and, I suggest that we all respect that. That is, you will not
(should not) find anyone who'll offer to share electronic copies of
the standard.
I believe that the answer to your POSIX question is "none". I don't
think POSIX deals with the wchar_t issue at all (someone correct me if
I'm wrong.)
Pat.
