I think C++14 is a good idea. The biggest cleanup area that might/will happen is in use of constexpr. Since constexpr functions with C++11 limited what could be done. I know we have mentioned this before but I can't find it either. I see the functions/methods in bbitmap.h definitely could be improved with going to C++14. Thanks, Andrew > > Jason
