[cfe-dev] Clang and concepts

[Larisse Voufo]

Dear John --

It's always nice to hear a few words of encouragement. :)

As you may have noticed, ConceptClang is completely conceptualized for the
moment.
The intention is to add a compiler flag at some point that allows one to
move between conceptualized and non-conceptualized versions of clang. When
this is done, certainly we could provide such a constant or related.

The only thing standing in the way at the moment is our focus on pushing out
some most pressing features:
Associated types, concept based overloading, and concept map templates.

I think we got associated types this morning, so we're moving onto
concept-based overloading...

I hope this helps.

Best,
-- Larisse.
