Hi folks,

I found another new feature missing from the feature list,
so here is my vote with an additional change requested.

> 2) Yes, but I recommend the following changes.

Proposed change 1:
  Introduction, page xiv, "Programs and procedures:" bullet point,
  after "A null pointer" insert "or unallocated allocatable".
Reason:
  Missing feature from the feature list.
Note:
  I strongly recommend this change.

Proposed change 2:
  10.10.4 "List-directed output", paragraph 13 (page 266),
  after "Except for"
  insert "new records created by explicit formatting within a defined output 
procedure or by"
Reason:
  This paragraph should be identical to the one for namelist formatting at 
10.11.4.3p5; the latter was changed by interp F03/068 which had too narrow a 
scope and the inconsistency was not spotted at that time.

Proposed change 3:
  Introduction, page xii, bullet-point "Execution control:",
  append new sentence to paragraph:
    "The ERROR STOP statement initiates error termination."
  Reason:
    Even though the difference between STOP and ERROR STOP might only
  be interesting in the parallel environment, it is not obviously a
  synchronization construct so not covered by "Parallel execution:".

Cheers,
