Hello again WebKitten!

April 2018 is fast approaching, which means that we might be able to require GCC 6 and all the great C++17 features that’ll come with it. So what say you? From C++17 it looks like we wouldn’t get quite a few things, but we’d be able to use a few nice things (see the table).

Hi,

I've been asking around, and it sounds like this will be a significant inconvenience for some Igalia projects where upgrading the compiler is a bit difficult, but everyone agrees the time specified in the dependencies policy (the next Ubuntu LTS release) is fast approaching, and that the policy is a good compromise. It looks like the next Ubuntu release is due on April 26 [1], one month from today, so we should be good to require GCC 6 at that time. Sound good?

Michael
