818. Function parameter packs in non-final positions

Section: 9.3.4.6  [dcl.fct]     Status: CD2     Submitter: US     Date: 3 March, 2009

[Voted into WP at March, 2010 meeting as part of document N3079.]

9.3.4.6 [dcl.fct] paragraph 13 requires that a parameter pack, if present, must appear at the end of the parameter list. This restriction is not necessary when template argument deduction is not needed and is inconsistent with the way pack expansions are handled. It should be removed.
