+Prepared on January 17, 1984, the /usr/group standard is an early UNIX standard proposed by the /usr/group international network of UNIX users.  This document was published along with the "Reviewer's Guide to the PROPOSED /usr/group Standard" as compiled March 14, 1984 and prepared by David L. Buck, which contains notes on the standard as well as a few focused papers on specific features such as file locking interfaces.
+From the abstract:
+This document describes a Standard for computer operating systems that are functionally compatible with the UNIX operating system developed by AT&T Bell Laboratories.  In its present form, the document focuses primarily on the "C" Language interface to the operating system.  This document is largely based on UNIX System III, but wherever possible, compatibility with UNIX Version 7 has been maintained.
+This document is intended to be used by both application and system vendors to assist with the development of computer software which is portable across a large number and wide variety of computer systems.
