Hi all, For those of you who couldn’t make it to the San Jose meeting, we have decided to add virtual meetings to the MPI meeting schedule in order to help us pick up the pace towards the next standard. These meetings will be non binding (in the sense that they won’t count for official readings nor will we allow for any voting), but they will be full plenary meetings intended to discuss proposals. The goal is to fix outstanding issues and to help these proposals have successful readings in the subsequent face to face meetings. Therefore, a good attendance is important to make sure that all voices and potential issues are heard. During the San Jose meeting, we decided on the following two meetings: January 17th, 1pm Central US time Topic: Remaining Issues in the Persistent Collectives Proposal Leads: Tony and Dan January 31st, 1pm Central US time Topic: FP16 and related proposals Leads: Atsushi and Dan We will send a reminder shortly before the meeting (with a webex link), but in the meantime, please mark your calendars! Thanks! Martin
