Proposal:

The following topics on 
http://www.cs.uiuc.edu/homes/wgropp/projects/parallel/MPI/mpi-errata/index.html

hould be marked with "To be included also in MPI 1.3" 
-----------------------------------------------------

Error in MPI_Scan Example  
Error in MPI-1, Example 3.12 
Error in MPI-1, Example 3.12, continued 
Error in MPI-1, Example 3.13 
Error in MPI-1, Examples 3.17 and 3.18 
Error in MPI-1, Example 3.34 
Use of strlen in MPI-1, chapter 3 
Formatting error in discussion of persistent communication in MPI-1 
Datatypes and MPI_PROBE 
MPI_Abort
Error handler for multiple completions (if ready for March meeting)

Not marked and therefore not included in MPI1.3 should be:
----------------------------------------------------------

Questions about Graph_create, Cart_create, and Cart_coords
 (not included, because it may require Impl.Effort, i.e. new version number 2.1)
Error handler for multiple completions (if ready for March meeting)
 (not included or included, --- must be decided when proposal available)
MPI_FINALIZE in MPI-2 (with spawn) (if ready for March meeting)
 (not included, because MPI&Threads is MPI 2)
MPI_GET_PROCESSOR_NAME and Fortran
 (not included, because it may require Impl.Effort, i.e. new version number 2.1)
Change "INOUT" to "IN" for MPI Handle Parameters in several routines 
 (not included, because related to new MPI-2 Chapter 2 Terms&... Text)

I hope I captured all currently proposed MPI-1.1 clarifications
in Ballot 3 and 4.

Best regards
Rolf
