I have not followed this group very closely. Has there ever been a discussion
of whether or not there should be a significant class library that comes
standard with C++, as in Smalltalk or Eiffel? What made me think of this
is that it's a little embarassing to have a string "libarary" composed of
functions operating on char*, rather than a class String. I might also
say that I recognize the controversy that would occur over choosing a model
of string behavior!
I would also be against any language dependencies on the library.
