We barely missed our November "deadline" but the potentially sensitive information in today's episode needed approval from the Sutter himself...

...and we got it! Join us with ISO Committee member (and Microsoft as well, of course =P) Gabriel Dos Reis, who graciously took the time to give us the inside scoop of some things that made it into C++17, as well as things that got taken out. All this is fresh off the press of the most recent C++ Standards Meeting!
