This is a major breakthrough (as silly as it sounds).

Anonymous ftp to bruno.cs.colorado.edu (which is, or shortly will be,
also accessible as "digital.resource.org"). You'll find lots of
standards goodies in the directories under
pub/standards[/ansi|/iso|/ccitt]. At present, however, you have to more
or less know what you're looking for; in the "blue book" directory, for
example, the files have names that are derived from the way in which
they are published (in volumes, fascicles, and sections) by the CCITT,
giving no clue to their contents.
