Bring your questions for our annual panel of C++ standards committee members! Here are this year’s panelists, and some of the key current features they’re actively involved with that are aiming for C++26 and other near-future ISO C++ evolution:

Andrei Alexandrescu (reflection, parallelism)
Daisy Hollman (ranges, library)
Dietmar Kühl (std::execution, concurrency, parallelism)
Gabriel Dos Reis (contracts, type and memory safety)
Khalil Estell (making exceptions affordable including in firmware/embedded)
Lisa Lippincott (contracts, numerics)
Michael Wong (AI, ML, parallelism)
Nina Ranns (C and C++ evolution coordination, committee secretary)
Timur Doumler (contracts)
Panel moderator: Herb Sutter (committee chair)

Some are long-serving attendees and national/subgroup chairs, some are newer attendees with fresh perspectives, and all have firsthand information about current progress in the C++ standard.

Come join us to ask and hear about these and more things to look forward to in Standard C++!
