"The new version due later this year will feature parallel algorithms, but Concepts, modules, and co-routines will have to wait for a
future upgrade"

I thought Infoworld was dead.

It's bad news and he tries to sugarcoat it, but I'm
glad they aren't going to let the schedule slip. If
I remember correctly, the 2017 release was supposed
to be a major release. With 2011 being a major
release and 2014 being minor.

Bjarne says, "For some, optional, any, and string_view
from the Library Fundamentals will be significant."

I don't think any is needed. There's already some junk
in the standard, and I'd rather not add to it.
