Resolutions L1 to L9 were passed by unanimous consent, L10 and L11 by 
unanimous acclaim.

L1. Technical Corrigendum 2 for Part 1 of the Fortran Standard
That WG5 approves the interpretations to Part 1 of the Fortran 
standard which are listed in WG5-N1466.
 
L2.  Maintenance of Part 1 of the Fortran Standard
That WG5 endorses papers WG5-N1452, N1456, N1463 and N1464 which 
contain suggestions for progressing unresolved interpretation 
requests.

L3.  Enhanced Module Facilities Technical Report
That WG5 directs its convener to submit a proposal to the SC22 
secretariat for a new work item for the production of a Technical 
Report on enhanced module facilities, the proposal to be made so that 
a decision can be reached at the September 2001 SC22 plenary meeting 
and the report to be targeted for final publication in 2004/2005.  
Further, WG5 thanks Van Snyder for producing an initial draft 
technical report (WG5-1434), for explanatory papers (WG5-N1433 and 
WG5-N1436) and for volunteering to be Project Editor.

L4.  Review of Fortran 2000 Draft Standard 
That WG5 congratulates the primary development body for its work on 
constructing the draft Fortran 2000 standard and for adhering to the 
agreed schedule.  Further it particularly congratulates the Project 
Editor, Richard Maine, for the high quality of his work and for 
producing the latest draft standard in good time for it to be 
considered at this WG5 meeting.  Following a review of the draft, WG5 
endorses the following papers on various issues: WG5-N1453, N1454, 
N1455, N1461 and N1462.

L5.  Minor Technical Enhancement to Fortran 2000
That WG5 approves the proposal to enhance module facilities which is 
described in WG5-N1458 and requests its primary development body to 
consider incorporating it into the Fortran 2000 draft, provided that 
this does not delay delivery of the first CD, which is scheduled for 
June 2002.
