Start reading at:
That was a year ago, and it's just words. If I decide to write a new C++11-only library, archived messages in a year-old mailing list thread will not stop me.
But, you'll say, the library will not pass review due to being C++11. Will it not? On what do we base this prediction?
I said people *should not* hold back development, I didn't say people *are* holding back development. Of course it's up to the people actually writing the libraries to decide what features they want to use. I hope those people continue to push Boost in new and interesting directions.
