My vote: abstain

My concern is that introduction of assumed-type and assumed-rank dummy 
arguments further complicates the situation in the area of argument 
association.  There isn't enough time to study the possible pitfalls in 
using these different type of arguments in complicate call chains.  I 
certainly didn't have time to go through all the possible permutations.

Cheers,


Jim Xia
