Perhaps. It's like that old joke about perspective. The length of a minute depends on which side of the bathroom door you're on. :-)

From my standpoint, I'm _still_ trying to get my head around all the ramifications of what has arrived in C++-11 (and it's a lot!). And I still have '14 and '17 to plow through too. '20 will be here before I know it. So for me, there is so much to absorb.

To my eyes the C++ leadership has done a great job at setting up standards processes for regularly delivering new versions and the compiler community has done an amazing job at keeping up too.

I expect to see more movement in the world of standard libraries which is where C++ still feels like a desert compared to other languages.

But yes it definitely is not fast when compared to other newer language communities.
