The draft is available from the J3 web site: ftp://ftp.j3-fortran.org/j3/doc/standing/007/ I will call it N1573, but the paper on the WG5 site will just point to the J3 site. We are now ahead of the Dresden schedule, see Resolution D6 (in N1548), which anticipated the document being available by mid September and the ballot being completed by mid October. I propose that we stay ahead by using the month of September for our ballot. The deadline for votes will be 9 a.m. UK time on October 1st. This is a personal ballot. Its aim is to get the FCD as polished as we can. All comments will be considered by the subgroup that we used for the CD, that is, me, Dan, Richard, and Van. Do not be shy of sending comments before the deadline - the more that come early, the easier our job will be. Non-controversial minor edits will be incorporated in the FCD. If there is anything controversial, WG5 will have to decide on the fly how to best to procede. A major controversial issue will delay the standard, but it would be better to know about it now than as a surprise in a national body NO vote on the FCD itself. Best wishes, John. ........................................................................... Ballot on forwarding N1573 (J3/03-007R1) as the FCD for Fortran 2003.
