I believe object-orientation is dated

I don't know how many advances might be happening recently on some underground Smalltalk mailing-list, but in general, OOP has remained the same for decades.

Does everybody think it's good enough? Does nobody want new features that will make your code more expressive somehow? Watcha think?

I hate to break it to you, but the currently used standard is dictated by compiler support, something of which C11 has none

Actually, a lot of C++11 features are supported by GCC, and in fact were supported before the standard was even finished. VC++ also supports a few things, I believe.

Clang implements all of C11 and is almost done with C++11 support.

Unfortunately, only Mac OS X's libc implements the C11 library functions in the latest Xcode beta. glibc is lagging, thanks to Ulrich Drepper being a late adopter.
