Subject: N1168 - Informal Letter Ballot on WG5 N1166

ISO/IEC JTC1/SC22/WG5 N1168


Informal Letter Ballot on WG5 N1166

WG5 document N1166 is the proposed Draft International Standard for Fortran
(DIS 1539-1).

Earlier this year the Committee Draft was circulated for an SC22 ballot, in
which all countries who submitted votes, other than the US, voted YES,
although France, Germany, Japan and the UK supplied comments with their YES
votes.  The reasons for the US NO vote, together with a substantial number
of less critical US comments and the comments which accompanied YES votes,
are accumulated in N1135.

During its meeting in San Diego WG5 reviewed all these comments and agreed
on the action to be taken in all bar a handful of cases, which it delegated
to X3J3 to resolve at its meeting the following week.    Document N1153
details all the edits agreed by WG5.  Note that as a result of WG5's
decisions all the reasons for the US NO vote were satisfactorily resolved.

Following the X3J3 meeting, which reviewed the WG5 decisions and also
resolved the handful of issues left unresolved by WG5, the Editor, Richard
Maine produced a new document incorporating all the approved edits.
Document N1167 details what these edits are, and N1166 is the proposed DIS
1539-1.

Before submitting the draft DIS to ISO for final processing, including the
formal DIS ballot at the JTC1 level, it is appropriate for WG5 to review
the document to confirm that the editor has correctly incorporated all the
approved edits.

Please review the document and respond by 31st January 1996 to the
following question:

        Does WG5 N1166 accurately reflect the decisions made by WG5 in its
        response to the comments received during the CD approval ballot on
        CD 1539-1?

             ------
        YES  |    |
             ------
        NO   |    |   If NO, please supply details of what has been done
             ------   incorrectly.

        (signed)  ...................................................

Please send your reply to the Convenor no later than 31st January 1996,
preferably by email to <Miles.Ellis@etrc.ox.ac.uk>, or by fax to +44 1865
270527, or by post.
