Work is proceeding to match the final draft. No one is working to
match the obsolete Dec. 1996 draft, though in most places they are
not that different.
Martin von Loewis is working on the namespace implementation.
Mark Mitchell and Kriang Lerdsuwanakij have contributed major
missing pieces of template functionality.
Ulrich Drepper is working on updating the standard C++ library,
though he hasn't made that work available yet (I occasionally
bug him about the cathedral he's working on).

None exist, partly because the committee changed things right up
until just before the final (Nov 1997) draft, and implementers
take time. Compilers based on the EDG front end are pretty close
for the compiler proper (modulo the usual bugs and language lawyer
nitpicking), but class libraries are another matter.
