Philipp, Bart,

That is the version currently cited in IEEE 1666-2005 (well, apart from the (E) on the end).
[BVt] except in the very first ‘scope’ section, which is where I got the note from…


So I don't see that there is any issue, or is Bart saying we should NOT cite a specific issue?
[BVt] no, we should list one, but preferably the current standard rather than still referring to ‘ANSI’

John,

IMHO, this is the correct document/version to refer to.
The full reference number is

  ISO/IEC 14882:2003(E)

according to my copy.

  It may be sufficient to refer to the '98 version of C++, I suppose.
But I don't see a benefit from it since all relevant implementations of
C++ support C++'03 well enough.

Greetings from Oldenburg,
  Philipp
