(j3.2006) (SC22WG5.4692) J3/12-147 for meeting #198: interp letter ballot #25 due 8-Jun-2012

[Whitlock, Stan]

I am sending this interp letter ballot to WG5 as well as J3.  After J3 votes on these interps, they may show up in a WG5 ballot.  Your comments now are welcome.  We will finalize the results at the Toronto WG5/J3 meeting in June so get your comments in by 8-Jun so they can be addressed in June.

Thanks                                                              /Stan

                                                           12-147

Subject:   J3 Fortran interp letter ballot #25 - due 8-Jun-2012
Date: 2012 May 06


Enclosed in the next letter ballot on Fortran interpretations.

The rules by which we operate say:

    o   J3 votes on the answer at a J3 meeting; a simple majority
        vote marks the answer as "passed by J3 meeting".

    o   Between J3 meetings the chair of /interp sends a J3 letter
        ballot to J3 to approve interp answers that have been "passed
        by J3 meeting".  The letter ballot runs for 30 days.  Not
       voting on three of four consecutive J3 letter ballots is
        grounds to terminate J3 membership.  An interp answer passes
        by a 2/3rds vote;  a no vote must be accompanied by an
        explanation of the changes necessary to change the member's
        vote to yes.

        J3/interp reserves the right to recall an interp answer for
        more study even if the answer passes.

43 Fortran interpretations are currently "Passed by J3 meeting" after
J3 meeting #197.  This is the letter ballot phase to go from "Passed
by J3 meeting" to "Passed by J3 letter ballot".

The following Fortran interpretations are being balloted:
