Hello Everyone,

I'd like to announce the following reading at the Chicago Meeting. This proposal fixes a security issue in the retrieval of MPI_Info_get function returned value and aligns the MPI_Get_info_valuelen function to the new semantics after the fix.

Ticket: https://github.com/mpi-forum/mpi-issues/issues/133

Ryan
