I'm working with John Maddock on this.
I'm expecting parts of the library to make it into Boost 1.38.

John, did you get the code I sent you?

Yep, suffering from a flakey machine and intermittent net access at present, 
will catch up eventually!

Currently, the "Past Review Results and Milestones" table lost the links to the code and docs of the
accepted library. Some times they are on the Vault, sometimes on the sandbox and other on private sites.
What do you think to preserv this information? I would also replace the review dates by the accepted date.

Maybe the wiki could be more adequated. It could also contain ongoing libraries or libraries that are no
moree maintained, but that can help the Boost community.

Best,
Vicente

   In many cases, those old files are not maintained or are even removed 
after the review is done. If it becomes part of Boost, it will be in the 
trunk. If it does not, then it is entirely up to the author to decide 
whether they even want it to be accessible anymore. It is entirely 
reasonable to have the old information disappear when the review is 
done, and I think it is a good choice.

   The only things that are no longer available are libraries that did 
not pass review and the author decided to remove, and libraries that did 
pass review where the author decided to remove out of date versions. 
Even in those cases, there may or may not have ever been a copy on boost 
servers.

   Once something has been released by boost, it is available even after 
changes have been made. So, yes I am fine with authors deciding what to 
do with their own pre-boost release libraries.

   If people really want the accepted date, I would need a clear 
definition of what that means. Is it the last day of the review, the day 
the manager tells us that it was accepted, the day it was first added to 
trunk, the date of first boost release, or some other date? What 
information is contained in that date that is more useful than the 
review dates? So far, I think it has been done this way because no one 
has seen value in changing the date later (The current method predates

OK, those have been updated (according to the review comments) and just 
been added to the SVN trunk.

Sorry for the long delay. My time for Boost activities was very limited 
during the last couple of months.

Hi Tobias,

Thanks for the update.  I will update the review schedule to reflect  
this.

Re: Review Wizard Report for November 2008


Thanks for the update.  I will update the review schedule to reflect this.

Ron,

There's still a big addition to Boost.Graph lurking in sandbox/SOC/2007 that was supposed to go up for a mini-review in 2007, but we never got around to finalizing it. I suppose it would be a good idea to re-queue it.

Another option would be for me to simply integrate the additions as maintenance without a review. Since its mostly new code, there shouldn't be any breaking changes to the library.

I've contacted with Alexander and he said he was working on the docs for
the library and also had to change the code. He is very limited in time,
but expressed hope to get it into 1.38.

I am working on a logging library, online docs available here:

http://boost-log.sourceforge.net

The functionality is quite ready, the docs are at about 70% ready. There
are a few examples, but no tests yet (I'm using the examples for
testing). I hope to submit it for a review at early 2009.
