I saw an answer at one point I believe at Brian Harry's blog (link blocked), but I think it has since been redacted (this was listed as the answer to a similar question (link blocked) asked 2 months ago). So, has there been any mention of these features for a production release? Even if not an actual date, any info like 'definitely not sooner than September 2013' or 'definitely sometime this year'?
I periodically check the VC++ blog, but haven't heard any chatter about these features lately!
