--- Comment #2 from Max TenEyck Woodbury <mtewoodbury at gmail dot com> --- Eventually, that is where this will go, but the committee is MUCH more receptive of suggestions that have an implementation that people have had a chance to play with. GCC is one of the platforms where new ideas get tested. So, I believe it needs to be considered here. While I have not had news group access in recent years, I did watch and made comments on the committee's action for more than a decade and it is implemented extensions that get taken most seriously.
