Is there a document detailing what has been changed from one POSIX version to another? I am looking for something, in a tabular view, that details what changed from say version 2004 to 2008
Sort of. There's the Rationale, one section per volume. Search for "Change History".
Unless I missed something, there doesn't seem to be a way to see what changed except for what was added or removed, except by visiting the page of each function/utility/etc.
As I mentioned in the other Q&A, you can start at the tag representing a particular POSIX revision and then click "attached issues." Due to the way the Mantis webapp handles URLs, I cannot provide a link directly to the issues list.
I don't know whether they compile the database into a single text file; I don't see the advantage as the bug tracker database is already searchable.
