This isn't strictly incorrect, but it should be pointed out that:
- it's not identical to the C++ standard library in C++98
- C++11 features are not here
- the standard was however closely based on the SGI STL
- and it's still a very useful reference!

The manual itself doesn't make this very clear: it's simply the documentation
for the SGI library, as it looked in the late 1990s (last updates in 2000).

Perhaps something like this?

  C++-STL documentation in HTML
  This is the documentation for the C++ Standard Template Library as
  found on SGIs Website, and covers things like containers
  (e.g. std::vector), iterators and algorithms.
  The library documented here predates the standard library in C++98
  and C++11, and the GNU Standard C++ Library.  However, the differences
  are often negligable.
