====== 2016-04-13 - C++14 by default ======

[[wp>GNU Compiler Collection |GCC]] has announced that [[https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-6/changes.html|starting with GCC 6.0 C++14 will be the default]] C++ standard (finally!). i'd expect clang to follow soon.

some questions still remain though:
  * why there was no release with [[wp>C++11]] as the default though?
  * why //gnu++14// instead of (iso)//c++14//?
  * why so late?! ;)
