Martin Sebor commented on STDCXX-311:
-------------------------------------

It's clear that the copy assignment operator must be accessible but there might be some confusion about the semantics of this assignment operator -- see LWG issue 621:
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/lwg-active.html#621
