That's a difference between AOM and ISO: ISO puts specs behind a paywall but anyone interested can participate in the actual standardization process through their national standardization body, AOM makes specs publicly available but participating in the standardization process costs about as much as a nice car. I don't really like either model, but I don't think I particularly prefer AOM's model.
