Links to drafts of standards, not to the standards themselves.  Most of
the links are to the WG14 site.

N2176 says "This version of the document is intended to be the version
that is to go into ballot for C17"; it's the closest publicly available
draft of the C17 standard.  (It's odd that the password-protected
version is substantially smaller than the unprotected version.)

(And as I said, it's not the document I meant to link to.  That was
N2596, the latest C23 working draft, also linked from cppreference.com,
which adds decimal floating-point.)
