Event report: using std::cpp 2014 at Spain

J. Daniel Garcia

From the article:

The success of this event is fully in line with several other international events as the recent CppCon in USA or Meeting C++ in Germany and can be seen as another proof of the high interest with which the industry has received the new versions of the C++ standard. It is also worth mentioning that as many other countries there is also a farly active C++ meetup group in Spain...

This week I presented my work to the C++ Committee Meeting in Urbana-Champaign. The ensuing discussion has implications for the future of the Standard Library...
