</div>Hmm, wouldn't that speak against jamming this into 2.7 ? Let 2.7<br>
go out and don't bark at it's C++ status. That gives you a full<br>
release-cycle to get C++ into some *REALLY* good state. For<br>
example, a state where you can not just say "Oh, Firefox doesn't<br>
crash anymore", but where are benchmarks for compilation time,<br>
compilation memory consumption and execution speeds exists.<br>
<br>
So, if there's only one coming-out party, make it a real party,<br>
not some "me too" event! :-)<br>
