I haven't kept up lately with the C++ world. Exactly where do things stand these days regarding the standard?

Is TR1 adopted?

Is there a TR2?

How do these relate to C++0x? Are the subsumed?

Has a decision been reached on threading yet?

I'd recommend you to visit http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/

The information you want is available at the site pvnsp directed you to. To synopsize my understanding

  • Yes, TR1 has been adopted and C++0x is expected to subsume nearly all of the standard.
  • There is a TR2, it's still in development.
  • As far as I know, there is no decision on threading. Here's a document from open-std.org that discusses the matter.

Thanks Adam. Precisely what I needed to know.

You can find an extensive article about the upcoming C++0x on wikipedia and the current state of C++ evolution here. It is also worth giving a look at the current GNU implementation in gcc

Thanks. Excellent sources. The GCC link was a great addition.
