I asked about plans for further C++11 support a while ago [1]. It seems unlikely
that alias templates will be implemented for Juno. (CDT is implementing C++11
features in the same order as GCC, and it has yet to catch up to GCC 4.6. Alias
templates were added in GCC 4.7).

I agree with you that it would be very nice to have them.

GCC has a status page in table form that shows which C+11 feature is already implememted.
http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.7/cxx0x_status.html

How about creating such a table for CDT on its Wiki page?
