SC22/Fortran WG of ITSCJ (Information Technology Standards Commission of
Japan) currentry has 11 members. Its meetings are held monthly, half a day
each time, in Tokyo.

Japan voted affirmatively for all the recent ballots.

Japan sent the defect report on Fortran 95 to NCITS/J3.

Translation work for the Japanese version of Part 3 (Conditional 
Compilation) has finished. Its Japanese standard (JIS) will probably be 
published by the end of this year. We found some defect items during the 
translation work. We are reporting them in N1387.

Translation work for the Japanese version of Part 2 (Varying length 
character strings) has just begun.
