Bibliography (informative)

These sources explain or justify EIS; none is normative. This repository stores no third-party document: data/sources.json records the URL, the retrieval date, and, where one was taken, the SHA-256 of each source it cites. The reference repository does the same for the survey and the catalog sections.
