CERT C Secure Coding Standard: last call for reviewers

This would be interesting to read, but they made a separate page for each 
of the rules (15 categories, each with let's say 10 rules, makes more 
than 150 pages), so this is basically impossible to read.
Is it available somewhere as an all-in-one page or pdf ?

Ugh, agreed.  I followed the link to see what they had to say, and 15-20 clicks later I
*still* haven't seen any actual code, or rules, or anything but meta nonsense.  This
"document" is a design-by-committee disaster.  I'm sure there's some useful info in there
somewhere, but real programmers will never see it.  They just don't have time to sift through
all the boilerplate.

FWIW, I deal with such pains/idiocies by cruising down the list, hitting each link with right-click-T, so each gets put in a new tab. Not only does it give you quick, less painful access, but it parallel-processes loading the pages.

Of course, this site reaches a new low in multi-paging.
