Actually the C++ STL was written in the late 70's, was ported to C++ in
1990 and didnt get standarised until 1998 (ISO/IEC 14882).

The the 70's template features were pretty novel, but it didn't get
standardised until it was very well established technology.

Back on topic: I think that standardisation should enable research (often
a standardised, open and versatile platform helps), but not depend on it.
My interest as as much in research as they are development - I'm employed
by a research department.
