I have just been informed that RELAX NG was published by ISO as an International Standard on 1st December 2003. The full title is:

ISO/IEC 19757-2:2003 Information technology -- Document Schema Definition Language (DSDL) -- Part 2: Regular-grammar-based validation -- RELAX NG

Its ISO Catalogue entry is:

The text of the published standard is unfortunately not freely available. However, the FDIS text remains available from the SC34 Chairman's site:

http://www.y12.doe.gov/sgml/sc34/document/0362_files/relaxng-is.pdf

The only differences I have found between the FDIS text and the published standard are that the Foreword is slightly different and the cover page, headers and footers have been changed in accordance with its change in status. Even the pagination appears to be identical.
