Lambda expressions voted into C++0x

This post by Herb Sutter on his blog says it all.

C++0x is really shaping up with lots of new interesting features ;)

About Herb's teaser in his post. I wonder if he used gcc for his tests... That would be fun. And still, not that inconceivable ;)

The use of the lambda expressions to pass code around to another thread is really interesting. I really like the active object pattern, but this is surely a great way of distributing work around.
