Hi Richard,

I take the non-compliances to be bugs and so I think that there is value in
posting the table on the meta-bug PR. Once the table is on its way to be
published, I will replace it on the PR with a table containing the partial-
and non-compliances only or raise specific PRs. For the F2018 compliance,
the situation is rather more difficult since gfortran's coverage is so
patchy. Thus far it has taken a lot of work to produce something even
halfway accurate. I would baulk at writing PRs for all the 'P's and 'N's
and so it will have to a table for that.

The gfortran wiki has https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Fortran2008Status and
https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Fortran2018Status. I will update these pages once
I am entirely sure of the state of each.

Cheers

Paul
