After some discussion it was agreed to raise a defect report with a proposed change that would permit but not require an attempt to fclose() open streams. Allowing it to be done is for backwards compatibility but does allow it to be async-signal-safe, if we required to to flush the streams it would endup in deadlock. Future Plans from this point ---------------------------- Draft 3 is scheduled for Tuesday August 6th . This will be another 4 week review period. Draft 4 is scheduled for Early September for a 2 week review, Draft 5 is targeted to be the ieee ballot draft. The cutoff for items to be considered in TC1 will be upon IEEE PAR approval which is expected to be mid August, so all issues need to be input as inbound defect reports before that date to be considered. Next call ---------- The next scheduled call is after the end of the review period for draft 3, Thursday Sept 5 2002 4pm UK, 8am Pacific.
