Hi
I hope you won't mind but I finally took care of it applying the
following patch:

Don't hesitate to tell me if you see anything wrong in the way I
handle it.

Hello
Thanks for the feedback. By the time I finally had access to the
CVS repo but I definitely prefer that you take care of it.
Here is what I compiled from your proposal, Paolo's feedback and
my initial blurb:
This branch carries all the C++ Runtime Library (libstdc++-v3)
patches that break its abi. It will be merged into the trunk as soon
as the decision to move to abi version 7 will have been taken. It is
maintained by François Dumont and the official libstdc++-v3
maintainers Paolo Carlini, Benjamin Kosnik and Jonathan Wakely.
I prefer to avoid the term "C++ ABI" because it might looks like
the C++ compiler ABI which is something different.
Regards
François Dumont

advise
me to write you, and the mailing list, to ask if you could document it
on this page:
Thanks for the heads up, François (and thanks for Paolo for the
reference ;-).
Based on your mail, how about the following change to the web page?
Should (also) others be listed as branch maintainers? Is there a
specific way patches to that branch should be labled in the subject,
similar to other branches? Any other changes?
