Yeah, I saw that one, but when ABI was brought up in one of the 
CppCon videos I perceived a lack of enthusiasm among the other 
committee members. Maybe I got the wrong impression, we'll see...

Yes. I bet the management of big corporations often focus more on 
what the competitors are doing than pure technical merits. So I 
am pretty sure that Microsoft is keen to have something like 
Swift, just in case. I guess that means increased internal 
pressure to make C# shine in the C++ domain...
