Hi,
Does anyone know how I could get a copy of standard or draft of standard
about C++.
Thanks in advance
Andrea Borgato.

I'm appending the relevant sections of the comp.lang.c++ FAQ (ftp
sun.soe.clarkson.edu, file pub/C++/FAQ). Maybe someone could
elaborate on what exactly is already in the draft, its price, and
whether it provides much over the ARM.

Q7: Are there any C++ standardization efforts underway?
A: Yes; ANSI (American) and ISO (International) groups are working closely with
each other.
`X3J16' is the name of the ANSI-C++ committee.
`WG21' is the name of ISO's C++ standards group.
[...]
Optimistically the standard might be finished by 1994 time frame (this is fast
for a proper standards process).

Q8: Where can I ftp a copy of the latest ANSI-C++ draft standard?
A: You can't. ANSI standards and/or drafts are NOT available in machine
readable form.
You can get a paper copy by sending a request to:
Standards Secretariat
CBEMA
311 First St NW, Suite 500
Washington, DC 20001
Ask for the latest version of `Working Paper for Draft Proposed American
National Standard for Information Systems -- Programming Language C++'.
