Hi all, With the missed quorum at the September meeting, we postponed the final tickets for the MPI 3.1 standard to the December meeting this means, unless we change our mind at the San Jose meeting, the last errata and second votes to be included into MPI 3.1 will held at the December meeting and we¹ll vote on the whole standard in March. We will have a discussion on the final document preparation on Thursday of the December meeting after the voting block. One thing is for sure, though: we need to reactivate the chapter committees and some of them are sparsely populated at the moment. Please take look at the list on the MPI 3.1 webpage and see if you are on the right spot and whether you would like to volunteer for chapter and then please send me email. Also, if you don¹t want to participate any longer, please let me know as well, since we need the committees to be active and heavily involved in the final steps for MPI 3.1. The role of the chapter committee is to oversee the editing process for that chapter, to make sure that all changes are included properly, that ticket 0 changes are handled correctly and that the chapter is consistent with the overall standard. The chapter committee lead then has the responsibility to commit changes approved by the chapter committee into the main copy of the standard.
