Re: [Cppcms-users] Next CppCMS Feature Poll

[Martin B. <mar...@gm...>]

Hello Artyom,

I vote for option 4, because I think there will be great immediate benefit
from reducing compiler messages about deprecation and enabling many helpful
C++11 features.
One of these features would be range-based for loops. This would greatly
improve the `<% foreach %>` directive.
I once opened an issue about this but quickly came to realize that my
approach was flawed. I since could not get this working the way I'd like it
to.
With C++11 this problem would disappear.

About the other options:
1. HTTP/1.1 and 3. SSL support - I agree with Pierre Couderc (and at time
of writing also Nazim Can Bedir) that most often web applications are
behind a reverse proxy. Therefore SSL termination and "virtual hosting" is
already handled.
2. Multiple Event Loops - I have no opinion on this, but I haven't
encountered a situation that would necessitate this yet.

And since Nazim Can Bedir wrote about splitting work, I too would
appreciate it if the project management would be done with GitHub.
I think this would enable more participation. I at least would want to
contribute, but cannot invest much time.
So I think task management over GitHub would be beneficial and would help
me to pick small tasks that I could work on.

Sincerely,
Martin Bürgmann
