This is the 3rd part of my little series over the papers in the Pre-Bristol mailing. I have added "and beyond" to the title, as I decided to handle all papers with Part 2, and now will continue to do so. This edition will again feature a few highlights, and a lot of proposals from different areas of C++.

A special april fools blog entry about a new idea for C++. While reading a lot of proposals, I did not have the time to prepare a proposal for Bristol about this, but probably will do so for the C++ Committee Meeting in Fall at Chicago.

With the announcement of this years Meeting C++ conference, it came to my mind that I will need this time a local Database for the talks, which later is able to export the talks for being rated by the program committee. A while back in 2010, I had finished the work on a program, which could generate C++ Code for Databases. I decided it was time to put this old project to the test.

I've started in February a little series about Qt5, and started with implementing a simple MP3 player with Qt5 Multimedia APIs. While I loved the thought of having a simple, multi platform MP3 player written in Qt5, it was not the original reason to take a look into Qt5 Multimedia capabilities. Something else had raised my attention: to be able to record videos.

So, there I was on my way to Amsterdam on Monday evening, reading on twitter that boost 1.53 had been released. Which is really great, as I think that this is really an important release. Not only does it offer 5 new libraries, it also brings some important updates and patches. But I've been busy with BlackBerry 10 till yesterday, so now a blogpost about boost 1.53, which it really deserves.

It was nice to watch the show, see what new stuff is coming to BlackBerry 10, and meet again with so many nice people from the Qt and C++ Community. Also, this was the first conference I visited after Meeting C++, its nice to be an attendee...
