Hi all,

JeanHeyd Meneide, a Project Editor for WG14, has just posted the results
of a survey re. the preferred form of a new array size operator:

"There is a clear preference for a lowercase keyword, here, though it is
not by the biggest margin. One would imagine that with the way we keep
standardizing things since C89 (starting with _Keyword and then adding a
header with a macro) that C folks would be overwhelmingly in favor of
simply continuing that style. The graph here, however, tells a different
story: while there’s a large contingency that clearly hates having
_Keyword by itself, it’s not the _Keyword + stdkeyword.h macro that
comes out on top! It’s just having a plain lowercase keyword, instead."
