Actually, it is in the process of being published as we speak. Also,
one of the requirements for getting 1076a approved was to base the
next release of 1076 on 1076a.

No, they're with respect to 1076a-2000.

Not a good idea, IMHO. RevCom will not then be aware of the fact that
it was based on 1076a and might therefore reject it out of hand.
