[Mpi-22] [MPI Forum] #109: Nonblocking Collective Operations

[Rolf Rabenseifner]

Bronis,

the corrections are based on the primary rule that the job of the 
chapter committee is to guarantee that a new functionality is 
included in the document in a consistent way.
This was done. This was not a correction of the functionality 
of the nonblocking collective communications.
Ticket 109 is the only one that was included and only for this
ticket, such consistency checks had to be done.
For all other chapters, the rule is "only typo and formatting corrections".
