Hi everyone! The next meeting of the C++ Standards Committee (WG21) will be February 10-15 in Prague, Czech Republic.
This meeting will continue to focus on bug fixing and stabilization for C++20, which has achieved feature-complete status in July 2019, and whose Draft International Standard (technically complete draft document, including bug fixes) we hope to approve for publication by the end of the meeting. C++20 is a big release, so we want to make sure we get it right. In parallel, the Evolution groups will be increasingly looking at C++23 material. The committee's proposed high-level direction for C++23 can be found here [1], with significant items including contracts, networking, reflection, and pattern matching. If you're curious about the state of C++ standardization, I encourage you to check out my blog posts where I summarize each meeting in detail (most recent one here [2]), and the list of proposals being considered by the committee (new ones since the last meeting can be found here [3] and here [4]). I will be attending this meeting, splitting my time between the Evolution Working Group Incubator (which I'll be continuing to chair), and the Evolution Working Group itself (on days when the Incubator isn't running), perhaps also visiting the Reflection Study Group if time permits. If you have any questions about the upcoming meeting, feedback on any of the proposals, or just want to chat about C++ standardization in general, please feel free to reach out! I'm all the Berlin All Hands, so if you're here too, feel free to find me in person to chat.
