Well, that particular discussion is essentially over. It was two months ago, after all. If you have questions about libstdc++, the best place to ask is probably the libstdc++ list itself. Joe's wording of "if the major GNU/Linux distributors can all sign up to this" isn't referring to an actual list of distributors who have formally registered. Basically, what we're hoping is that distro vendors will read that email thread, and decide to /not/ make any downstream changes that would break this plan. (I'm still not certain what the term "compatability libraries" refers to in the context of a Linux distribution. It means something rather unique where I work, and I've never been a distro vendor/system-integrator.) Note that ELF symbol versioning on libsupc++/sibstdc++ is in place for 3.1.
