Thanks for the update Zachary! I indeed missed the LLVM-Dev meeting, so this is a welcome bit of news for me!
I’m glad we decided to go with the cmake-warning mechanism. Was there ever any discussion about a rolling warning system as I proposed here? https://reviews.llvm.org/D47073
It had received positive feedback on the mailing list, though Chandler had/has some reservations. IMO, it is a way of going about this that prevents this discussion from being so contentious in the future.

For those of you who were not able to attend the LLVM Developer Meeting (and as a recap for those who were), we had a productive BoF about enabling C++14 or C++17 in LLVM. The outcome of this can be generally summarized as:
- There were no major objections to moving to C++14 / C++17 "as soon as possible"
- "As soon as possible" is not immediately, but we are currently targeting March of 2019 due to some downstream contributors' needing to resolve some blockages before it can be possible.
- There did not seem to be a strong sentiment that we should only move to C++14, so for the sake of this discussion we're assuming 17 unless someone presents a strong argument why 17 is less desirable than 14.
Minimum Compiler Versions for "Reasonable C++17 Support" (Mostly everything minus CTAD) GCC - Version 7 [1] (Version 8 for CTAD) Clang - Version 4 [2] (Version 5 for CTAD) MSVC - 2017 Update 5 [3] (Update 7 for CTAD)
We plan to add a CMake warning if your compiler version is below these versions soon. Around January, we will promote this to a CMake error which you must manually override by passing -DCMAKE_ALLLOW_DEPRECATED_COMPILER.
If I'm forgetting anything or misrepresenting anything that was said at the BoF please feel free to correct me.
