Anyone happens to have a link to MISRA-C PDF ? :)

I hope you realize your asking people to publicly commit a crime. Not making any value judgements, I just wanted to make sure you're aware.

  Breaking the law, sure, but crime? Simple copyright infrineent tends not to be criminal. Other stuff is meeded - like selling the copyright material.

    The colloquial use of the word crime means an action that breaks a law.

      No, the colloquial use doesn't include stuff for which you can't be punished by the state. It's not a colloquialism, it's just an error.

  Last time I googled, I ended up with nothing. This time it works much better: google:"filetype:pdf MISRA-C" and hitting "I'm feeling lucky" takes me to somewhere where is a PDF. I would not bet that I've committed a crime by searching the web for information (what the web is for), I think that where I live (northern part of EU) this is an OK thing to do.

It's not expensive: http://www.misra.org.uk/Buyonline/tabid/58/Default.aspx http://www.misra.org.uk/Buyonline/tabid/58/Default.aspx I sympathise with people who complain about ISO and friends charging mega-bucks for standards, but MISRA's prices seem rather reasonable.

  The sad part about standards is that there are (at least) two type of standards: absolutely necessary to guarantee interoperability (think: nuts and bolts and other types of hardware, networking, software, electrical characteristics of components etc) and the ones that usually are regulatory requirements, things like ISO27000 or ISO9000. And then there are absolutely open (and free) standards. Standards that are necessary for basic interoperability should be all free (at least in the software space, maybe that's why I see standards that get "promoted" from IETF RFC-s and other less bureaucratic sources to ISO as regressions). And the ones that are usually used in regulatory processes, can be paid for, as those who insist on or desire conformance usually have monetary incentives involved. Now, charging for "standards" that contribute to "public safety and security" (what MANY C programs are, for sure) is something that does not fit into either category. But true, the MISRA prices are reasonable (if the content is indeed worth any money for purposes other than compliance).
