Neither.
C++ definitely has _NOT_ had _any_ standard 6months ago let alone 2
years ago. The guy is a clueless fool.
I've heard (a rumor) that within the last couple of months (maybe
December) the latest draft C++ proposal (not the old one that was
laying around for the last 2-3 years) was accepted. I don't know if
this is really true and if so if it is ANSI or ISO.
OTOH, Common Lisp/CLOS was (AFAIK) the first true standardized OO
language (1994 as opposed to Ada's 1995), though it was ANSI and not
ISO.
