2.2.1 SC22 report

Benito reported that SC22 has worked very hard on new wording to make all Type 2 TRs publicly available for free.

Dos Reis asked whether the technical content C TRs will be considered for inclusion (possibly by reference) in C++.

Benito responded that he hoped so, and went on to mention plans for a second TR on bounds-checking interfaces.

Plum indicated that it was too late to consider these items for inclusion in C++0x.

Meredith asked about the deadline for proposals to library TR2.
