Hi all, We’re getting close the release candidate meeting for MPI 4.0 next week and many of you have already submitted your reviews for your assigned section. If you haven’t done so already, please do that soon. If you won’t be able to do it, please let me know that too as I have a couple of people who have volunteered to help out. You should have received a link to the Google spreadsheet a couple of weeks ago. I don’t want to send it on this list since the document is editable. If you’ve lost that link, reply to me and I’ll send it to you again. For those of you on chapter committees, please be looking at the reviews for your chapters that have already come in. The more items we can fix before or during the RCM next week, the easier things will be for us procedurally. This still includes things that were brought up earlier in the year, but weren’t yet addressed for the RC. There is still time to fix those and make MPI 4.0 as good as possible. One thing that would be helpful is for everyone to take a look at the issues in this board: https://github.com/mpi-forum/mpi-issues/projects/2#card-49698029 <https://github.com/mpi-forum/mpi-issues/projects/2#card-49698029> Anything in the Triage list that’s assigned to you can be addressed right now and still make it into MPI 4.0. You can even filter to include things assigned to you by typing "asssignee:<your_github_username>” in the search box on the right-hand side of the window. If you plan to work on any of those items, please drag them into the appropriate column (from Triage to “To Do” or “in Progress”). That will be very helpful and move things along for the RCM next week where we will have to go through each item in that list to make a decision about it anyway. This Wednesday during the virtual meeting time (10AM US Central), we’ll go through as many of these issues as possible to clear the way for other things next week. Please try to attend if you can. Thanks, Wes
