::::::::::: All these anecdotal remarks are really great and I ''love'' them. :) Thank you! Though, while working on improving Wikipedia articles, we simply must play by the rules and base the content of articles on reliable sources. Thus, the answer to your question is that the ELF specification simply fulfills the requirements set by [[WP:RS]] (or [[WP:SCHOLARSHIP]] in particular){{snd}} it's an official standard, published by a reputable organization. While working as Wikipedia editors, we surely can (and should, to some extent at least) always question the sources, but only by finding and providing ''other'' sources. — [[User:Dsimic|Dsimic]] ([[User talk:Dsimic#nobold|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Dsimic|contribs]]) 20:21, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

:::::::::::: [[COFF#History]] states that COFF was a major problem with SysV releases prior to SVR4. In view of [[UNIX System V#SVR4]], it is no wonder Bill Joy of Sun could talk about ELF on December 1988. Still, it looks to me that both [[UNIX System V#SVR4]], [[UNIX System V#AT&T support]] and [[Unix Systems Laboratories]] implicitly support UCS developed ELF, though probably many other organizations were, some more and some less, involved.
