Strangely enough, my copy of ISO 15291 has no copyright statement at
all; might be a "last draft" version.
However, the headers of every ASIS-for-Gnat package state:
"This specification is adapted from the Ada Semantic
Interface Specification Standard (ISO/IEC 15291) for use with GNAT. In
accordance with the copyright of that document, you can freely copy and
modify this specification, provided that if you redistribute a modified
version, any changes that you have made are clearly indicated."
(and since that statement dates back to Robert Dewar's times, I'm pretty
certain it is reliable).
My memory is that all "interesting" part of the standard was deliberatly
put as comments in the specification, precisely to circumvent the ISO
copyright, and allow the use of ASIS without paying an outrageous price
to ISO.
