Back in 2019, Ondrej, Zach and Gary started a "Fortran Proposals" Github repository (https://github.com/j3-fortran/fortran_proposals), which I envisioned as serving as an "incubator" for features that might be considered in future revisions. A few months ago I asked Ondrej to compile a list, organized by clause, of the entries submitted to date, and this is now available. Some of these are detailed with lots of discussion and some are more abstract concepts. Quite a few of these have been proposed and declined for earlier revisions, but it's always worth taking a second look. Some are already in F2023.

Please look over the list (https://gitlab.com/fortran-lang/github_stats/-/wikis/j3-04232022) and click through for details on proposals that catch your eye. I'd also encourage additional comments on proposals if you have them.

I'd like to do at the July meeting what we did for F202x (coincidentally, also in Boulder) - have each attendee (including virtual) come up with a list of five features you'd like considered. These can come from the Github list, your own concepts, or anywhere else. Subgroups will then offer opinions on each and rank them.

This is just the start of the process, but we will have the advantage of many of the ideas already being discussed and evaluated. I also need to go through the papers list and make sure we include features that were marked "deferred" or "out-of-order". I expect that other ideas will come in over the next year. Of course, Generics will be a big part of this.

Thanks for all your hard work to get us to the endgame of F2023, despite the setbacks of a global pandemic. I'm proud of what we have accomplished.
