Hi Jim,
Yes, that was (and still is!) the intention. I haven't yet created a
branch in SVN for the new version of the standard and that's the first
step toward getting the text more prepared than we already have it. We
are sufficiently close to something we could read that it would be a
shame to miss the June deadline. I will attempt to find some time this
week to work on this.
Cheers,
Dan.

Dan,
At the last meeting, we came up with a proposal to allow info to be used
for assertions. Should we work on pulling that together as a formal
proposal, to read in June?

Hi All,
I am cancelling the point-to-point teleconference today because I have
not had time to progress the work on communicator assertions since last
time and I am not aware of any other ongoing work for us to talk about.
Looking forward to figure out when the next meeting will take place, I
won't be available for the next two teleconferences due to travelling.
This means that the next meeting date would be 25th May, i.e. one week
before the face-to-face meeting in Chicago.
I will send out a reminder nearer the time and will communicate any
progress in the interim via email.
Cheers,
Dan.

Hi All,
The next point-to-point teleconference will be today, Monday 13th April
2015 at 11am Central US via webex.
Connection details are on the point-to-point wiki page:
https://svn.mpi-forum.org/trac/mpi-forum-web/wiki/PtpWikiPage
Agenda:
0) Discuss/agree the to-do list (see below) that covers the next two
agenda items.
1) "Can INFO keys change the semantic behaviour of MPI?" issue -
following the discussion at the face-to-face meeting, we seem to have a
workable way forward on this issue!
2) New communicator INFO keys - it looks like these will be allowed, so
we should define a few and get a proposal ready for the next
face-to-face meeting
3) Progress on Arecv and Fsend or ReceiveReduce?
4) Other stuff?
Cheers,
Dan.
