To everyone in the MPI Forum, but especially the chairs of the MPI Chapter 
Committees,

There are a number of updates that the Forum agreed to apply to the MPI 
standard that need to be reviewed and signed off by the chapter committees. The 
next group of these are the Fortran style changes, restricted to *not* include 
the change in lettercase for the Fortran keywords. As some of these had to be 
disentangled from commits that both fixed style issues and lettercase, these 
need to be reviewed again.  They were posted quite a while back, but only a few 
reviews were received. In retrospect, I needed to set up a separate column in 
the signoff spreadsheet, which I’ve now done. You will find that in Column E, 
labeled “Editor Fortran style updates (revised)”; the spreadsheet is in the 
same place:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qPAREYgeuSCMtU-EQniDilrHIYb8W0-f6Qzjp-UtnH8/edit?usp=sharing

Please do the following (if you are a chapter chair):

1) If everything is fine with the changes, enter YES in the column and row for 
your chapter(s).
2) If you find a problem that needs to be changed (not something that you want 
to add), then:
    a) Enter NO
    b) Enter a comment on the PR page ( 
https://github.com/mpi-forum/mpi-standard/pull/145 ) about the issue
    c) If I am able to make the correction, change your entry to YES

3) ANY OTHER ENTRY WILL BE CONSIDERED A NO. This is the same interpretation 
used for the other reviews - and using this sheet to communicate changes has 
already slowed down the process of applying these edits.

If you are on a chapter committee, please help your chapter chair.  Others are 
welcome to review and communicate issues either on the PR page or with the 
appropriate chapter chair.

I’d like to apply the Fortran style changes as soon as possible, and certainly 
within a week (April 1st, an appropriate day).

Thanks for your help!

Bill
