We don't actually know the name of the next VS release, although we know `Visual Studio "14" will most likely be available sometime in 2015, with a more complete preview release and final naming available later this year.`
Also, the roadmap published at the bottom of http://blogs.msdn.com/b/somasegar/archive/2014/05/28/first-preview-of-visual... is just their current best guess. For example, "inline namespaces" was off in the distant future, but when the LWG started using inline namespaces in the TSes, Microsoft implemented them right away.
I think it safe to say that if a feature is in a CTP, it is extremely likely to appear in a production compiler sooner rather than later. One can therefore state, with some certainty, what featureset a VS2015 will as a minimum likely have. I certainly can see that generalised constexpr will be hard for Microsoft. They'd need an internal constexpr-only C++ compiler as theirs is not an AST based compiler.
