   I have not too much time for active developing the stdcxx, but I can 
review user patches, test them on a set of Microsoft compilers and 
commit into svn.
In the other words, I can provide support of the stdcxx to the users if 
any exist :). Also I plan to smoothly move the stdcxx in the C++ 0x 
direction.
So my vote is: -1
