I have seen already some quotes to the C++ standard such as this one
and wonder whether it's legal. Isn't the standard a non-free document,
it's as far as I know not even accessible without paying for it (in
contrast to C#, which resulted in online docs for this language and
the library even in Open Source IDEs which isn't still the case for
C++).

Seems like a copyright violation ...
