Hi Oliver,

"C++ - extensions" sounds scary and "a few things" sounds mysterious.

Concerning the Windows port I currently use Visual Studio 2013.
I found 2 articles roughly describing the support for modern C++:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/de-de/library/hh567368%28v=vs.120%29.aspx
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vcblog/archive/2013/12/02/c-11-14-core-language-features-in-vs-2013-and-the-nov-2013-ctp.aspx
If you stick to the supported subset there might be a chance to keep the
Windows port alive.

Supporting QMS is always an adventure for me and it depends on your pace
whether I will be able to follow or not.
To minimize risk I propose that you introduce modern C++ stuff in small
iterations, and - based on feedback from your stakeholders - decide
whether you roll back to a more conservative approach in case of
compatibility problems.

Regards,

Helmut
