                      WG5 letter ballot on N1814

                       John Reid, 15 March 2010

This is the letter ballot that WG5 agreed to hold on the draft FDIS for
Fortran 2008. This has been constructed by the editor in accord with 
resolution
LV6 of the recent WG5 meeting (see N1811) with the few very minor additional
changes that are detailed in N1822.

Please answer the following question "Is N1814 ready for forwarding to SC22
as the FDIS for Fortran 2008?" in one of these ways.

1) Yes.
2) Yes, but I recommend the following changes.
3) No, for the following reasons.
4) Abstain.


Vote from Bill Long:

  Yes, but I recommend the following changes.

In Note 8.45 (page 194 in 8.5.6 LOCK and UNLOCK statements) replace the 
first comment in the example code:

! Lock to manage the work queue

with

! Lock on each image to manage its work queue

[This suggested change arose when someone familiar with distributed 
locks (so-called MCS Locks) thought the coarray variable queue_lock 
represented a single, distributed lock, rather than a separate lock on 
each image.  The proposed replacement wording makes it more clear that 
LOCK_TYPE does not have some magical global variable property.]



This is an individual vote. Please send your vote to sc22wg5@open-std.org
to arrive by 9 a.m. (UK time) on April 12th 2010.
