+libstdc++ is an implementation of the Standard C++ Library, including the
+Standard Template Library (i.e. as specified by ANSI and ISO).
+
+Some notes on porting applications from libstdc++-2.90 (or earlier versions)
+to libstdc++-v3 can be found in the libstdc++6-4.3-doc package. After the
+installation of the package, look at:
+
+ file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-4.3-base/libstdc++/html/17_intro/porting-howto.html
+
+On Debian GNU/Linux you find additional documentation in the
+libstdc++6-4.3-doc package. After installing these packages,
+point your browser to
+
+ file:///usr/share/doc/libstdc++6-4.3-doc/libstdc++/html/index.html
+
+Other documentation can be found:
+
+ http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/
+
+with a good, recent, book on C++.
+
+A great deal of useful C++ documentation can be found in the C++ FAQ-Lite,
+maintained by Marshall Cline <cline@parashift.com>. It can be found at the
+mirror sites linked from the following URL (this was last updated on
+2010/09/11):
+
+ http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq/
+
+or use some search engin site to find it, e.g.:
+
+ http://www.google.com/search?q=c%2B%2B+faq+lite
+
+Be careful not to use outdated mirors.
