The governance of the project is not immediately clear to me, and I have to assume that the Google team is working in good faith. That team cares a lot about C++ and its future. They are obviously aware of this stigma. I also think that Google is pretty bad at open source governance though :/
Disclosure: Former Google engineer who worked sorta adjacent to some of those people.

- runevault 4y agoHuh looking at that page and saw Kate Gregory is involved. She's someone who, as a mostly outsider who dabbles in C++ occasionally, seemed incredibly dedicated to seeing C++ thrive and people come to understand the language. Her involvement here seems like a huge positive to me, but maybe that's coming from a place of ignorance.
