I was mainly referring to the fact that C++ succeeded in spite of
having initially an incomplete specification. Nowadays the
expectations are much higher.

As long as you keep changing the language, no specification will ever be
complete.
It is the other way round. As long as there is no specification, there
are no language changes, as everything can be cast as a bug fix towards
implementing some imaginary specification that is different for each dev.
C++ will long advance. D must be out and living before C++14. Then, it
will be too late.
I think there is no reason to assume that C++ can be fixed.
My view.
Obviously.
