OpenMP5 is not yet supported, but this is being worked on. As far as general development is concerned: Like Steve, I am one of the volunteers maintaining the compiler. You write that you're not a compiler writer; well, neither am I, in a professional sense. I am a chemical engineer who very occasionally uses Fortran for his day-time job. I contribute to gfortran mainly for three reasons: a) I like the language b) I like the intellectual challenge and c) I want to give something back to the open source community. People often think that you need to be an exceptionally good programmer to contribute to a compiler. I can testify from first-hand experience that this is not necessary, since I am absolutely certain that I am not exceptionally good :-) If you feel strongly that some bug should be fixed, there are several options available to you. You can convince the organization you work for to fund some bug-fixing. You can try to motivate people to fix this (negative motivation usually does not work), or you can try to fix it yours= elf. Although there is an entry barrier to doing things to the compiler, it is quite possible to find an entry to this, and it is always possible to ask f= or advice. A starting point is https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranHacking . You will need a general-level knowledge of C for this (technically, the gfortran front end to gcc is written in C++, but it is very close to the common subset of C and C++).=
