I read it in the SQL spec. ANSI/ISO 9075-2 1999 (final).
Annex D
(informative)
Deprecated features
It is intended that the following features will be removed at a
later date from a revised version of this part of ISO/IEC 9075:
1) The ability to specify UNION JOIN in a <joined table> has been
deprecated.
It's the only one. I sent a patch to the patches list for JOIN
documentation. In it, the only thing I said about UNION JOIN is
"Deprecated." Let me know if I should change that. I thought about omitting
it entirely.
