Well, I can only speak for myself but that sounds great to me. I only care 
about C99 compliance. I haven't even caught up to C11 myself, yet. Others 
will have much more nuanced and well developed opinions, I'm sure.

I noticed pkgtools/pkgsurvey. Does this data go to folks who look & care? 
Maybe we could do a "call for surveys" from all the folks on the mailing 
lists and get an idea of what's really in use out there.
