It's good the core language now has to have a reason before it deletes shit. Speaking of, when do they add full garbage collection and call it c+++?

Garbage collection was at some point part of the spec but was removed in 23.

If wasn't full garbage collection in the spec. It was some infrastructure support in the spec that would make it easier to write garbage collectors in C++.
