Hi everyone, The next meeting of the C++ Standards Committee will be next week (November 3-8) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
With C++14 being officially approved [1] and expected to be published within the next couple of months, the focus of the meeting will be shaping the high-level vision for the next version of the standard, C++17, as well as moving along the various Technical Specifications that are in progress. For a summary of the progress made at the last meeting, and the statuses of the various proposals before the committee, please see my blog post about the last meeting [2]. A list of proposals in front of the committee can be found here [3]; see in particular the list of new proposals since the last meeting [4]. I will be attending the meeting. I'll be presenting the proposal for named arguments that Ehsan and I co-authored [5]. Other than that I plan to spend most of my time in the Evolution Working Group participating in discussions about new language features. If anyone has any feedback on any of the proposals in front of the committee, or anything else you'd like me to communicate at the meeting, or anything I can find out for you at the meeting, please let me know! As usual I will blog about the meeting after it's over. I'd also like to reiterate my standing offer to any member of the Mozilla community who would like to submit a proposal to the committee: I'd be happy to help you write the proposal, and to present it at a future meeting if you're not able to make it to one yourself.
