I was wondering how the Libraries workin group's
investigation into container classes was progressing.

The Mar/Apr edition of The C++ Report mentioned that
the group might be looking into a small set of classes:

string
vector/array
bit set
list
queue
stack
map/directory
hash table

It looked like work had started on the vector and bit set
classes. Are these classes going to be in the C++ standard
library ? Are they going to publish guidelines on how to
design these classes ?

We are trying to get a handle on the libraries used in our
apllications. We noticed that three separate String libraries
were being used ( sound familiar ). We want to consolidate these
into one library that would be in step with the ANSI String
Class so that we could one day throw away the library and link
with the standard C++ library. Are we just dreaming ?
