Welcome
Welcome: everyone else seems to be blogging so I thought I'd join them.
A little bit about myself. I've been working on compilers for longer than I care to remember (Pascal, Fortran, Modula-2, C and most recently C++). For the last 10 years I've been a developer on the Visual C++ compiler team: currently I am also the Microsoft representative on the ISO C++ committee WG21/X3J16.
The main focus of my current activities is C++ for the .NET platform.
I am hoping that I can use this blog to provide insights into the decision making and development process behind Visual C++: basically what we're doing and why we're doing it.
