There was a problem hiding this comment.
Please use the Oxford comma here: "a family of classes, functions, or variables, or an alias for a family of types." Right now, this can be misread as "defines (a family of classes), (functions or variables), or (an alias for a family of types)."

Can you please squash the commits? |

@FrankHB: Ping |

@tkoeppe I tried fixing it by adding the additional comma, but now I think perhaps it would be better to list them alone. And should the static data members also be here? |

@FrankHB: That kind of high-level decision is not for me to make, @zygoloid is the responsible adult here. If you don't feel that the change is uncontroversially ready, maybe delete the PR and open an Issue instead to discuss whether there's a problem that needs to be solved and what the solution should look like? A PR is unlikely to be an effective forum for discussing things like this; if a change isn't actually correct and desirable, it will probably just not get any attention here. |

Opened #593 instead. |
