Will 2015 be the year other commercial C++ vendors (Intel, Borland, Green Hills, CodePlay HP, IBM, Oracle,...) catch up Microsoft?

No, that was probably 2014.

Intel ships a compiler based on Clang: http://llvm.org/devmtg/2014-04/PDFs/Posters/ClangIntel.pdf

This means they get clang's ridiculously conforming implementation with icc's performance.

Unless Intel's documentation is out of date, they still haven't full C++11 support.

Those docs refer to Intel Composer XE 2013. The PDF I linked to is with regards to Intel Composer XE 2015.

Have you bothered to read the "Version 15.0" column at all?
