Well, this thread was going on for sometime, wish there was more traction from the core BOOST members. Maybe, a lot of effort could have been avoided. Having a WIKI is a battle won but having someone or a group of people willing to turn it into a COOKBOOK is the primary goal. Is there any such plans from the BOOST core community (boost-consulting)? Any leads will help in not duplicating the efforts and more importantly, confusing the BOOST user community.

There is the glue docs project on the wiki:

http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/GlueDocsProject

We should try to work together. Your cookbook idea is similar to the "Common Tasks" Section of the Glue Docs project of IBD. You have came up with a nice way to collect examples, that can make a real difference. There are a few devels working to improve boost documentation [1], we use the boost-docs list [2] as our main communication method. It will be very good if you can post your idea there. Nice to see movement in this front :) Best regards Matias [1] http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/ImprovingBoostDocs [2] http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-docs
