Revision as of 23:58, 5 October 2006

After 5 years the IEEE 1275-1994 standard got withdrawn by the IEEE Standards Association. This does by no means implicate that this standard is abandoned or dead. There are several commercial implementations of Open Firmware and a quite reasonable number of hardware vendors support it. IEEE sold it to Global Engineering who still offer it.
