Version: AIZP V0.6
This index lists the external standards that AIZP normatively references or aligns with, each with its role in the protocol and a pointer to the relevant AIZP document. AIZP does not reinvent these standards; it composes with them.
Normative language ("MUST", "SHOULD", "MAY") follows RFC 2119. The authoritative AIZP wire definition is AIZP_Protocol.md, with machine formats in
../proto/aizp.protoand../../schemas/. Canonical enums are in registry.md.

Standards text changes faster than this protocol. The mappings above are pointers; verify the current standard before relying on them. Regulatory regimes in flux (e.g., Colorado AI Act) are documented in the relevant compliance profile rather than asserted here.
