However, arguments have been made earlier that we should be trying to
actively engage and/or harmonize ISO C++ with the rest of the rest of
the world.
I think that is a good goal. I just do no think that pushing people to
constantly change working codes is achieving that. I would like to
see LWG harmonized with the rest of the world in lifting the
filesystem library from TR2 to the actual C++0x standard -- that would
really be useful.

you're no longer making the `burden' arguments? :-)
