sounds good for me (but of course depending on the actual time).

I'm not sure what I can do for gfortran 4.7 (since I was and am very
busy this year and will start writing my master's thesis possibly
soon), but I hope that during the summer I can spend some time again.
My goals are working on FINAL (again) and also some smaller issues
like the missing pieces of ASSOCIATE.

At least for FINAL, I think we could discuss the plans for
implementing it - some stuff will be similarly to what Janus already
did for clean-up of allocatable components (I think), but there are
also (in my opinion) some pieces that make it worse than that.  And of
course I would really like to (in the end) merge the allocatable
component handling with finalization, so that we get a clean(er)
implementation of both together.  This probably also could be
discussed and planned (as I do not know a lot about how allocatable
components are handled at the moment).

Yours,
Daniel
