Dear Kiyong,

yes, that is true. We have departed from ISO 1996, because its syntax is 
clumsy and not well readable (especially because of the many commas), 
and is practically not used. Instead, we use a variant of EBNF that is 
popular.
Note that also "=" is used in object languages.

Best, Till
