The monthly listing of upcoming C++ User Group Meetings on Meeting C++:
C++ User Group Meeting in December 2015
by Jens Weller
From the article:
The montly overview on C++ User Group meetings, this time for December. Meeting C++ is just a few days away, so I'm excited to see that again, so many groups are meeting. Also there are few new user groups worth mentioning! 2 x India (Delhi, Udaipur), Sydney, Beijing, Zürich, Sacramento and Ann Arbor! A new trend seems to be to form learning groups and meet weekly for a in depth C++ tutorial...

C++ en la industria del videojuego
by Jordi Mon Companys.
What to expect?
Jose Daniel García will moderate a table of experts in gamedev in C++ that will friendly elbaorate on the state of the language on regards to gamedev, its advantages and threats. Afterwards we will join forces with Product Hunt Madrid and we will have the chance to hear how King develops its games and how a group of students from U-Tad university have managed to get their game nominated to the Play Station Awards. We will water down our thoughts and reflections with plenty of beer thanks to King.com's sponsorship.

Another trip report of the last meeting in Kona:
Trip Report: C++ Standards Meeting in Kona, October 2015
by Botond Ballo
From the article:
Last week I attended a meeting of the ISO C++ Standards Committee in Kona, Hawaii. This was the second committee meeting in 2015; you can find my reports on the past few meetings here (June 2014, Rapperswil), here (November 2014, Urbana-Champaign), and here (May 2015, Lenexa). These reports, particularly the Lenexa one, provide useful context for this post.
The focus of this meeting was primarily C++17. There are many ambitious features underway for standardization, and the time has come to start deciding what which of them will make C++17 and which of them won’t. The ones that won’t will target a future standard, or a Technical Specification (which can eventually also be merged into a future standard). In addition, there are a number of existing Technical Specifications in various stages of completion...

I posted an update on my founding C++ User Groups article from 2 years ago:
6 topics on starting and running a User Group
by Jens Weller
From the article:
Almost two years ago I blogged about founding C++ User Groups, since then I have learned a lot more on the topic, and I want to share that experience with you in this blog post. While my focus here at Meeting C++ is C++, this post is more on the topic of a User Group, so its also useful to you, if you want to start a user group on something else. Yet, I might strive away into C++ lands in this post...

The videos of CppCon 2015 are coming online. You can see them all here: Youtube or Channel 9
Here are the most recent ones:
The talk will cover the CLANG + c2.dll compiler for the Microsoft platform. It will contain parts of the talk given at //Build 2015 that can be found on line: "Compiling Objective-C Using the Visual Studio 2015 C++ Code Generation that Builds Windows, SQL, .Net, and Office". The focus this time will be on C++.
The talk will disclose the architecture of how we tied the CLANG open source front end with the Microsoft optimizing backends (several configurations are needed) and how far we are from providing a CTP for public consumption targeting 4 different architectures. Included in this section will be a disclosure of data on compile time, memory consumption, conformance and correctness.
In addition the talk will cover the nuts and bolts of several key innovative compiler and runtime technologies we will be delivering in the Visual Studio 2015 updates (Fall, Winter and Spring). New investments in the compiler and runtime space include: Improved optimization and auto-vectorization, more secure code generation, incremental whole program compilation, and new asynchronous C++ code generation.
