I'd like to echo Whit's sentiment and hopefully warm up this thread. C++11's new features and functionality give R users low-level tools (like threads, mutexes, futures, date-time, and atomic types) that work across platforms and wouldn't require other external libraries like boost.
Romain, will you be taking pull requests? ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
