ISO Standard | Standardisation process | Language design principles

[edit] Motivation
Prolog implementations have progressed since the original ISO standard was written and as a result new predicates are commonly available but may be absent from the standard, have different names, or have different semantics. A revision to the standard aims to address these limitations.
[edit] How to get involved
- participate in discussions on the forums at prolog.logtalk.org
- contribute to this wiki
- vote at ICLP 2007 in September.
- join the ISO committee - see [1]
