Problem

As part of the MPI 5.0 review the following was proposed:

Page 676 Line 41-44 - This sentence is somewhat convoluted grammatically, my suggestion is ""For each process in the group, the location in the file where data is accessed is the position of the shared file pointer after all processes with ranks lower than the current process have accessed their data"

In a respective PR the sentence was improved but it was consensus was that this sentence remains convoluted and should be revised in MPI 6. (Or "MPI Next"

Proposal

Chapter Committee should revise sentence.

Impact on Implementations
