I'd like to echo Whit's sentiment and hopefully warm up this thread.
C++11's new features and functionality give R users low-level tools (like
threads, mutexes, futures, date-time, and atomic types) that work across
platforms and wouldn't require other external libraries like boost.
+1
portability is really important. One of the points is that by giving
means to assume a certain standard, we can write more portable code.
There has been lots of discussion about Boost.Thread, etc ... no need
for that if you have C++11.
Romain, will you be taking pull requests?
Yes. Definitely. I will carefully review them.
Can give you write access too.
I'm getting a good feel of what C++11 brings while developping Rcpp11.
But I think it makes a lot of sense to write such an article with other
people as well.
