Are there any plans for a future C standard after C11?

Question

I searched on the open standards website, particularly the C working group homepage but only found information about C11.

They seem to have regular meetings and discuss different features and extensions, but they never actually mention a future C standard nor roadmap. It is hard to tell whether they are working on a new standard or just a Technical Corrigendum to the current standard.

Answer 1

I sent an email to the guy on the WG 14 contact section but I didn't expect to get an answer anytime soon, however, I did.

This is what he replied to me:

the Committee has not discussed starting work on a new revision of the Standard. WG 14 will be meeting in Parma Italy the first part of April, and so far there as not been any proposals for new features that would prompt the revision process.

So I guess this is as official as it gets for now.

Answer 2

It appears there is discussion about the next C standard, C2x, and there are proposals as well.

You can view the charter here.

And, you can view the email list here.

At the bottom of the charter, it indicates an expected publication date of 2022.
