The major accomplishments thus far +include the completion of the test suite driver (STDCXX-4), the +migration of a large number (but not all) of stdcxx tests from the +Rogue C++ Standard Library test suite to this driver and to the ASF +Subversion repository (STDCXX-4), and the creation of a Windows +configuration and build infrastructure (STDCXX-5, STDCXX-13). + +The successful completion of these objectives marks an important +milestone for the stdcxx project. To facilitate the migration of +existing users of the Rogue Wave C++ Standard Library to stdcxx, the +stdcxx community is currently in the process of releasing version +4.1.3 of the project. This release has been scheduled to coincide +with the release of the Rogue Wave C++ Standard Library 4.1.3 on which +stdcxx is based. A vote to release stdcxx 4.1.3 is under way on +stdcxx-dev. + +In other news, the stdcxx PPMC recently voted to extend an offer of +committership to Anton Pevtsov. Anton is the author of the Windows +build infrastructure and his help with porting the test suite over the +last few months has been essential. In addition, in preparation for +graduation and the forming of a PMC, the stdcxx PPMC has started to +discuss expanding its membership from the current 5 (including 3 +mentors) to involve other active committers. + +Going forward, the most important goals of the growing stdcxx +community continue to be to increase the visibility of the project and +further increase the number as well as diversity of its users, +contributors, and committers, finish porting the stdcxx test suite, +and implement a complete test harness for the project to facilitate +automated nightly testing. Other goals include expanding the set of +platforms to Apple Darwin and other BSD-based operating systems, +enhancing support for the C++ Standard Library extensions described in +the (Draft) Technical Report on C++ Library Extensions. + +Martin Sebor Propchange: incubator/stdcxx/site/status/2005-12.text ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ svn:keywords = Id
