Related to that: C++ standards body seems to be quite open allowing non-members to participate (outside official votes, while respecting them when looking for consensus) is it just due to my limited observation or is the C group less open? Any plans in that regard?
- msebor 7y agoMost of us on the committee would like to see more participation from other experts. The committee's mailing list should be open even to non-members. Attendance by non-members at meetings might require an informal invitation (I imagine a heads up to the convener should do it).
- DougGwyn 7y agoI think that's right. These days, much of the discussion occurs through study subgroups (like the floating-point guys) and the committee e-mailing list.
- AaronBallman 7y agoI would love to see more open interactions between the broader C community and the WG14 committee. One of the plans I am currently working on is an update to the committee's webpage to at least make it more obvious as to how you can get involved. The page isn't ready to go live yet, but will hopefully be in shape soon.
