Boost is pleased to announce the availability of release 1.35.0. This is a major release that includes 12 new libraries, and coincides with an upgrade and reorganization of the www.boost.org web site. The new libraries are: * Asio: Portable networking, including sockets, timers, hostname resolution and socket iostreams, from Chris Kohlhoff. * Bimap: Boost.Bimap is a bidirectional maps library for C++. With Boost.Bimap you can create associative containers in which both types can be used as key, from Matias Capeletto. * Circular Buffer: STL compliant container also known as ring or cyclic buffer, from Jan Gaspar. * Function Types: Boost.FunctionTypes provides functionality to classify, decompose and synthesize function, function pointer, function reference and pointer to member types. From Tobias Schwinger. * Fusion: Library for working with tuples, including various containers, algorithms, etc. From Joel de Guzman, Dan Marsden and Tobias Schwinger. * GIL: Generic Image Library, from Lubomir Bourdev and Hailin Jin. * Interprocess: Shared memory, memory mapped files, process-shared mutexes, condition variables, containers and allocators, from Ion GaztaƱaga. * Intrusive: Intrusive containers and algorithms, from Ion GaztaƱaga. * Math/Special Functions: A wide selection of mathematical special functions from John Maddock, Paul Bristow, Hubert Holin and Xiaogang Zhang. * Math/Statistical Distributions: A wide selection of univariate statistical distributions and functions that operate on them from John Maddock and Paul Bristow. * MPI: Message Passing Interface library, for use in distributed-memory parallel application programming, from Douglas Gregor and Matthias Troyer. * System: Operating system support, including the diagnostics support that will be part of the C++0x standard library, from Beman Dawes. Among existing libraries, Boost.Threads has been upgraded to reflect changes made by the C++ committee in the process of including Boost.Threads in C++0x. Dozens of people contribute to each Boost release. Rene Rivera, Daniel James, and John Maddock were instrumental in readying this release. It wouldn't have happened without them. --Beman Dawes, Release Manager
