At the dev meeting we talked about moving past C++11 around March 2019, with the caveat that we might slip a bit if major contributors felt it was too onerous for them. Some people want to move to C++14, other to C++17. It's unclear whether we'll move the language only, or the library as well. What's clear is that the build should incentivize people to move away from compilers that barely support C++11, because we're moving away soon. The versions you suggest are conservatively correct, and warning folks *now* seems desirable.

I think this is the right path forward, and we'll want to clarify things as March approaches.
