The idea behind Boost was hatched in March, 1998, and the proposal document https://www.boost.org/users/proposal.pdf was released May 6, 1998. That makes Boost twenty years old, and makes me twenty years older. It is high time I retire from Boost; I haven't been able to contribute for some time now.
Thank you, Beman. Thank you for your contributions, your vision and your advice. The C++ world is much richer due to your efforts, but (today) poorer now that you've retired. -- Marshall
