Since we currently have language herds for other languages such as Ada, Perl, and Java, I don't think C++ should be any different. There are currently many packages in the tree that are C++ libraries or utilities that are no-herd and are actively maintained, and there are probably some that have just been sitting around rotting. With the creation of a C++ herd, there would be a team that could support these packages, instead of a single maintainer, if the package has one. Below is a list of all of the packages that I believe would qualify as falling under this herd. If you see your name in the following list, I'd especially like to hear from you. Names with a '?' next to them are packages that had no metadata and I guessed from the changelog who the maintainer is. I would also like to see many of them, if not all, moved to the dev-cpp category:
