I may have overlooked something, but I feel like the LGPL meets the requirements above. Could You please explain or point to further information about this issue. Section 4 of the LGPL states:
" 4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code...." (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.txt) This violates the Boost requirement "Must not require that the source code be available for execution or other binary uses of the library." -- Jim
