For a long time yet, seeing as how they're required to do so. Overall, I think there are a lot of nice features in C++0x. The problem is as you said however: they've added even more stuff to an already large and complicated language. And with all the legacy code, the crufty old approach to doing things will stick around for a Long Time Yet. Still, if D isn't an option, at least 0x eases some of the pain of using C++.
