I have been having an email discussion with Steve Lionel because he strikes me as very suitable as a successor. He is willing to take on the role. He has retired recently but would like to remain active re the Fortran standard. I have checked with the people that regularly attend WG5 meetings and all support the idea of Steve as convenor. As ever, I seek consensus, and I have it. Thank you, Steve, for agreeing to step forward. I will set the formal process in motion. The appointment is made by SC22 and there will have to be a change of country because the country of the convener has first refusal. With consensus in WG5, I don't think there will be any problems. With best wishes, John.
