--- Comment #17 from Paolo Carlini <paolo.carlini at oracle dot com> 2011-05-03 14:13:37 UTC --- I'm under the impression that later today we can resolve this: Howard and Daniel agree on the reflector that we want something similar to the clear() + swap semantics we have in the containers, essentially. And noexcept can stay.
