It still 10*404b540aSroberthas some incomplet and incorrekt parts, but it's a lot less incomplete 11*404b540aSrobertand incorrect than some of the earlier snapshots, and quite usable. 12*404b540aSrobert 13*404b540aSrobertThe Standard C++ Library, follows an open development model, 14*404b540aSrobertattempting to be fully buzzword, bazaar, and GNU compliant.

The use of the latest stable gcc-3.0.x release (3.0.4), CVS 76*404b540aSrobertgcc, or gcc-3_1-branch is strongly recommended, which may also 77*404b540aSrobertintroduce additional dependencies for up-to-date binutils. In 78*404b540aSrobertparticular, current binutils (2.12) is recommended so that symbol 79*404b540aSrobertversioning for the library is on by default. In addition, you may need 80*404b540aSrobertup-to-date tools for modifying Makefiles and regenerating configure 81*404b540aSrobertscripts: automake (version 1.4), autoconf (version 2.13 and higher), 82*404b540aSrobertand libtool. 83*404b540aSrobert 84
