Hi Howard (et al), I wrote down my thoughts on #710 (including the sessions viewpoint) here: https://github.com/mpi-forum/mpi-issues/issues/710#issuecomment-1536306552 Addendum, just for sessions folks: ``` C MPI_Init(); MPI_Recv_init(..., MPI_COMM_WORLD, &req); MPI_Finalize(); MPI_Request_free(&req); // erroneous, MPI is no longer initialised, so calling MPI_Request_free is prohibited MPI_Session_init(); MPI_Request_free(&req); // oh dear lord, what is this? Surely this is also erroneous, but where ...flicks through the MPI Standard... is the prohibition in the standard? MPI_Session_finalize(); ``` Best wishes, Dan.
