I do doubt that using C++ would increase the number of contributors. 
It is very difficult to write C++ in a transparent way, which is
essential for debugging and further development by others.  

I did some clean-up work in shattered industrial projects using C++.
Most of them had to be rewritten(!) in plain ISO-C. So I would recommend
it only for new projects written top-down and close to a qualified spec.
