um, nope, not going to happen...<p>C++ did that in the 2000&#x27;s, in that time there wasn&#x27;t much news about standardization, because of this C++ was seen as legacy, people moved to other languages. The new languages such as Rust, Go etc. are also a result of this.<p>The C++ committee has now a process of ongoing standardization established, which will improve the language further, and make it easier and more efficient to write C++. Also, the standards are usually backward compatible for at least 2 standards. What gets removed is often obscure features like auto_ptr, random_shuffle etc. which are superseeded by better alternatives. Clang modernize can even get your code base automatically updated to a new standard.<p>I know, that some of you are left behind, as you are stuck with the traditional &quot;almost never update the toolchain&quot; model, but clang and other tools are such a leap forward, that this is not a model for the future anymore.<p>So, C++ ecosystem evolves to become better, and make you as a programmer more productive and lets you write easier and safer code.
