This is the second of two papers I would like SG15 to consider for the next meeting.

<https://rawgit.com/bfgroup/std_cpp/master/doc/std_compile_Dxxxx_R0.html>

This paper is a concrete proposal for one aspect of the Package Ecosystem Plan. It proposes to add an interface for transforming C++ source into usable executable programs. As such it aims to provide a common definition of compiler frontend tool options for transforming source code to translation units and linking those into executable programs.

There is also a sample vendor specification to go along with it:

<https://rawgit.com/bfgroup/std_cpp/master/doc/std_compile_vendor_gcc_SDxx.html>

There is a growing implementation (it grows as I add options to the paper) here:

<https://github.com/bfgroup/std_cpp>

I am looking for feedback, and collaboration, to hone the paper and implementation ahead of the meeting.

Note: I was hoping to post this with an actual paper number. But Hal hasn't been responding to emails this past week.
