What CWG means?

Thanks for reading)
CWG is an acronym for "core working group", a part of the committee that designs C++. Partly they maintain a numbered list of issues and defects in the design of the language itself (the "core language"). For example CWG 912 would be core language issue #912, this one:

The whole committee's website is

All the issues can be found at
