Re: Reviewers Was: Re: Fortran/PR19303 PATCH: Runtime selection ofrecord markers for unformatted sequential io


I wrote, concerning the reviewers list for (lib)gfortran patches:

I'll think up something for the http://gcc.gnu.org/fortran home page tomorrow (am too sleepy now).

Here's what I came up with (attached).


Is this OK ?
