FWIW, Walter Bright have been, for years, proposing the C standard to fix the billion dollar mistake in a backwards compatible way. Stroustrup is the head of the C standards committee, just saying.

Typo? Stroustrup is not even a member of the C standards committee.

Stroustrup voice counts one vote like everyone else on ISO C++, doesn't matter what role he played on the language creation.

Also the current head of the standards comittee is Herb Sutter.
