Following an extended period of development, with more than half a dozen iterations, a standard for APL was not long ago adopted for use within IBM. In this paper we offer some highlights of our experience in this development process, as well as an appendix containing the technical matter in the standard itself. If a standards effort should get under way in the wider APL community, this experience and its work product may perhaps be found useful, and it is offered here in recognition of this possibility, without any commitment on the part of the IBM Company to support or not support such an effort. It should also be understood that this material is not offered as a specification of the function or performance of any particular IBM product.
