It is, I hope, authorative, but naturally cannot be complete if by complete
you mean ``contains a list of all usefull libraries of functions and classes''.
The task library isn't part of the language it is a library. It is documented
in the ``released notes'' that AT&T ships with the C++ tape.

We clearly need a way of making libraries known and available to people that
needs them. This is, however, a thorny administrative problem.

Good luck.
