Is the IEEE 802.3 af a ratified standard yet?  Where can I go to read
about this standard on the Net?

Acording to the IEEE site itself, their 802.3af standard in still in
the draft stage and will be considered again in June.  You can read
all about it at the links provided at:

Hope this is what you need, but if not, simply use the Request for
Clarification feature to let me know how I can be of further
assistance.
