- Subject: TR library extensions
As most of you probably know, the standardization committee is working
on a technical report on standard library extensions. Basically it
just specifies a whole lot of stuff that might be added to a future
version of the standard someday. Standard library implementers are
encouraged to supply these things as extensions, so they and their
users can experiment when them. (They're supposed to go in std::tr1,
not in std, since they aren't yet part of the standard and might never
be.)
A draft version of the TR is available at
<http://anubis.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2003/n1518.pdf>.
We aren't supplying any of the TR extensions yet. I think we should.
Doing all of it will be tremendously hard (one of the components
requires serious numerical work), but we should at least start on it so
we have a framework for contributions.
What do people think about directory structure and naming conventions
and such?
