Re: [wwwdocs] Update coding conventions for C++

I think any proposal for adding a new C++ feature to the standards should 
go in its own thread on the gcc list with a meaningful subject, not this 
thread which should simply be about integrating uncontroversial standards 
in the existing documents.

We should start by documenting standards that are a conservative and 
uncontroversial extension of the C coding standards currently used - if we 
need to ask the question about whether something should be allowed, it 
should not be allowed in the initial standards coming out of this general 
thread.  Then, to add individual features to the list we can discuss those 
features and standards for them separately.
