[Mpi-forum] MPI_WAIT/MPI_TEST and generalized, I/O, and NBC requests

[Pavan Balaji]

Can someone clarify what pieces are deemed "chapter committee changes" 
vs. something that requires voting?  My understanding was that 
grammatical errors that do not change the meaning are the chapter 
committee's job.  While this particular change is trivially obvious, 
that doesn't fall into the above set of allowed chapter committee changes.

In any case, making a decision over email seems ridiculous.  There needs 
to be an official rule for this.  I'm OK with the official rule being 
"the chapter committee decides on whether a change requires a forum vote 
or not".  But collecting preferences over email is a nonsensical way to 
do this.
