Hi Jim, as a new type, i would propose to use only "correction as errata", and I would propose to still tell the number in the title, i.e., Title: MPI-3.0 errata: xxxxxxxxxxx Type: Correction (as errata) Okay? Less is to risky as I learnt in the past years. The type should not include a number. It must be clear how far backward an errata is going. At the end some people have to go through all tickets, and then the title is important. If you say yes, then I would directly ask Jeff to introduce the new type that you can procede. Currently, you may have the most errata tickets. Best regards Rolf ----- Original Message -----

Thanks for taking the time to look through these tickets. The RMA WG is planning to handle these as MPI-3 errata in the next meeting. Instead of marking this in the ticket title, can we instead add a "type" for "MPI 3.0 Errata" (these are currently listed as "Correction to standard"). This would make it easier to pick out such items in a query.
Thanks, ~Jim.

Jim and all,
I expect that you may want to handle the tickets #347, #348, #350, and #355 as MPI-3.0 errata.
For this, the most simplest is to add "MPI-3.0 Errata:" at the beginning of your ticket title. I did this in #345. It passed at the Dec. 2012 meeting.
You should pass such errata as fast as possible, probably in the next meeting.
I do not know whether ticket #346 is an errata (i.e., clarification or correction of a wrong, inconsistent or missing definition) or a new feature.
As usual at the end, I'll put all the errata in a separate section in MPI-next, as I did in MPI-3.0 B.1.1. Therefore I prefer to have such a clean visibility in the title. The method we used in MPI-3.0 was too dangerous (we oversaw them for an extremely long time).
Best regards Rolf
