It will consist of a short presentation on the Fortran standards efforts and then discussion among attendees and panelists. So far I have participation from PGI and Pathscale, plus Damian and Karla (well, Damian volunteered Karla but I haven?t heard from her). If anyone else (or a representative) on this list will be at SC14 and wants to join us, please let me know. There will also be a survey of the audience on what features from the standard they are using and which they?d like to use in the future.

It turns out Karla will have to fly home on Wednesday so she won?t be able to attend the BoF.  I?m sure Salvatore Filippone will join me and I?m pretty Tom Clune will attend.  I believe Tom is now on the committee and Salvatore is considering joining and attending the London meeting in August 2015.

I would add Cray to the Fortran 2003 list for those who don?t realize that full 2008 support implies full 2003 support.  Also, Portland Group announced full Fortran 2003 support about a year ago so they should be on the Fortran 2003 list.
