I think the operative word here is "available". I know that SQL specs
are'nt freely available either, but due to SQL being already widely
supported one can get the general idea from many freely available sources,
like the bunch of freely downloadable DB's currently available for linux.
Most of them have some docs included.
It is still quite a job to reconstruct SQL92 from them ;)
I know now description (except a BNF syntax available from some ODBMS website)
that I could use to get some idea about OQL.
