No, it's not useful any more. This form of the C++ status page was useful back before we had C++98/03 implemented, before we had actual users. Now, we'd be far better off with just a list of C++0x features and a check next to each one that's been implemented.

Anyone who wants to help implement a feature without a checkbox will start poking in the code and will run across the partial implementation, at which point they can start asking the right questions to figure out what needs to be done and whom to talk to.

I don't believe it's complete. CC'ing Sean, who can tell us more.
