Yes–In February 2003 the IESG approved iSCSI draft 20 (with two brief modifications) as a Proposed Standard. (For an explanation of the Internet Standards Process and vocabulary, see http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2026.txt). Other specifications related to iSCSI can be can be found both at the IETF web site or at Julian Satran’s IPS archive. Many vendors including TMI have released iSCSI equipment working flawlessly based on some iSCSI draft revision. Right now most iSCSI vendors, including TMI, are shipping draft 20 compatible equipment. All iSCSI equipment is easily upgradeable to the latest standard through some form of firmware download.
