The Austin Common Standards Revision Group (CSRG) is a joint technical
working group established to develop and maintain the core open systems
interfaces that are the POSIX(R) 1003.1 (and former 1003.2) standards,
ISO/IEC 9945, and the core of the Single UNIX Specification.

The current activities are maintenance of ISO/IEC 9945:2009.

The group is currently preparing a first technical corrigendum for
ISO/IEC 9945:2009, and expects to send an initial draft of this to SC22
for letter ballot shortly.

Since this is a TC for an existing item of work, the group does not believe
any change in the program of work is required.

The group meets regularly by teleconference to consider defect reports
and issues on the current approved standard. Minutes are kept in
the Document register at http://www.opengroup.org/austin/docreg.html .  

The group has adopted an online defect reporting system for
the latest two editions of the standard,

The online version of the current standard can be obtained at

The next Austin Group meeting is listed at http://www.opengroup.org/austin/
in the events diary (a Google Calendar also exists to which you can subscribe).
