Comments from the Editor
Last week the Visual C++ team stopped by the Codeguru forums to chat about C++0x, the next release of the C++ programming language. They also discussed a bit about Visual C++ 10 while they were here. If you didn't get a chance to stop by the forum last week, you can still find all the threads and discussions at:http://www.codeguru.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=98
If you have some downtime, it is worth skimming through the threads to see what was said! I included links to a couple of the threads later in this newsletter.
Until next week...
Brad!
