Yes, I believe this is likely true. The standards organizations pay for
some of their operation by selling hardcopies. Probably not extremely

I believe that they are, but don't know with absolute certainty. I had
found a text file of a draft of the standard somewhere on the web
(perhaps at berkeley?), which I hope is close to the final version.
