While I admire your work and feel sympathy towards your wish. This naming got me confused. I wondered whether it's just the templated part of the standard lib or whole.
It's anecdotal but there certainly is a strong spirit of getting it right. I guess it's a characteristic of people working with it. In cpp details like that matter a lot.
I personally would feel more sympathy towards naming msvc implementation after your initials, then it could be even called STL library =D. Same effect with better motivation imho. Cheers.
The very first line of the readme had me searching through this thread to figure out what exactly this repo contains. Is it the standard library, or just the STL?
Very cool release, but confusing naming. I'm sure it's longstanding practice at Microsoft, but maybe instead of saying "also known as the STL," it would be more clear to say, "which we also call the STL."
Anyway, I'm looking forward to poking around this code.
