Issaquah trip report and how the C++ sausage is made

Nina Ranns joins Timur and Phil. After community news, including conferences, a new C++ community in Africa and a new project manager and build system, we talk to Nina about the recent ISO committee meeting in Issaquah where the technical work on C++23 was finalised, as well as an inside look at how the committee works and Nina's current project: allocator-friendly library types that don't allocate.
