FWIW, I don't particularly care whether we return the 0's or not -- I just want the ambiguity resolved so that all MPI implementations do the same thing. That being said: a) Dick makes some pretty good arguments. I can see the value of not returning the 0's. If we voted again, I'd probably vote to not return the 0's. b) I *think* the predominant attitude in the forum for the straw votes was "what the heck; might as well return the 0's since that's what was originally passed." I don't recall there being any other strong technical reason. Specifically: if we take a new straw vote and go the other way (*don't* return the 0's), I'll happily change the proposal to reflect that and we can start it over again (ie., have first reading, etc.).
