Why not SQL:2008?

If it's not in latest version, it has been superceded and we should
consider removing it.

If the comment was meant to refer to SQL:2003 originally, it should
probably be left that way. I don't want to get into the game of doing a
global search-and-replace every time a new spec comes out. If anything,
comments referring to particular spec versions should probably make a
habit of referring to the *oldest* version in which a given feature
exists, not the newest.

That was the idea. I don't care much one way or another, but SQL:200N is
obviously not very clear.
