There are no library papers here, unless highlighted by the Registration Document submitted following the Portland meeting. Otherwise this list focuses entirely on changes affecting clauses 1 -> 16.
Note that while the deadline for new proposals for C++0x is long past, it is not unusual to split a specific feature out of an existing proposal, to ease their progress. Likewise, existing Core Working Group issues may grow large enough to merit a paper that would not have previously shown on this list.
Proposals in a green font have advanced a category since the last meeting, those in red have moved back, while those in yellow are new or have been updated since the last meeting.
Issues with a green background have been highlighted as the features that will be delivered in the next version of the standard in the Registration Document.

| Blessed by evolution - wording available for initial review by Core | ||
| The design of these features is deemed complete and accepted by EWG, and there is a paper with complete wording for Core to review. However, CWG have not yet devoted any committee time to this issue. Typically papers in this state have been accepted by EWG at the previous meeting, or the version with proposed wording was not avaiable by the pre-meeting mailing. | ||

| N2236 N2379 | General Attributes for C++ | Michael Wong, Jens Maurer |
| Core issues addressed by specific papers | ||

| Evolution of current proposals | ||
| These papers are the inspiration or history behind the active or accepted proposals. They might have been absorded into a larger proposal to ease taking a whole package through review. They are retained here as they capture a large part of the rationale that will produce C++0x. | ||

| Heading for a separate TR | ||
| These topics are deemed too important to wait for another standard after C++0x before being published, but too experimental to be finalised in time for the next Standard. Therefore, these features will be delivered by a technical report at the earliest opportunity. | ||
| N1567 N1776 N1839 N1965 N1977 | Decimal Types for C++ | Robert Klarer, P.J. Plauger |
| N1736 N1778 N1964 N2006 N2015 N2073 N2074 N2316 | Modules in C++ | Daveed Vandevoorde |
| Not ready for C++0x, but open to resubmit in future | ||
| Papers in this category have been reviewed in EWG but for various reasons they have not been accepted for C++0x. This may have been a lack of time to finalise the issues, a lack of motivation compared to competing papers, or simply the authors being pulled in different directions. This list is retained as a potential working list for EWG to pick up for the next standard revision. | ||

| No interest, or superseded by other proposals | ||
| These papers have either been superseded by different set of proposals, or were identified as a something we do not want to do. While everyone is free to submit papers they feel strongly about, it is unlikely any of these topics will gain favour for a future standard unless something significantly new is presented with the updated paper. | ||
