I've implemented my fair share of custom containers in the past (most notably before the STL was truly standardised, or well supported), and I don't think any of them were as good as the STL. Maybe you're just better at it than me ;) One point - many people think the STL is hard to extend, but mostly it's because they're thinking about it the wrong way. To extend the STL you have to understand the underlying philosophy; that extension is by algorithms and functor objects and such, not by subclassing. The STL has a class hierarchy but you're not supposed to extend it, you're supposed to plug your objects into it. It's a little esoteric but there's a hell of a lot of power in there, I highly recommend 'Effective STL' by Scott Meyers to get a peek into this.[/quote]
