While we’re just a few months into the GCC 4.10 release cycle that’s going to be released as GCC 5, there’s already some release notes forming for this 2015 open-source compiler update.

The GNU Compiler Collection 5 won’t be released until sometime around early-to-mid 2015. In the months since the GCC 4.9 release there’s been continued work on Link-Time Optimizations, Intel contributing its MIC runtime offloading library, and continued work towards C++14 support.
