Hi all:

Several of my maintained packages are starting to use C++11 features in
their code base. This new C++ standard brings nice features to the
language but could end up in some ABI problems when mixing C++98 code
and C++11[1].

AFAIK, Debian Sid compiles all the software without the c++11 flag, so
if a program or library uses other dependencies, we will end up mixing
c++11 and c++98, right?

Is there any documentation about how is debian handling this? Are new
packages using c++11 eleven going into the repository?

Thanks very much.
