Another boost book we are expecting is boost proto. It is a great
library.
So far, I am referring to the link proto_doc_pdf
<http://www.boostpro.com/vault/index.php?action=downloadfile&filename=b
oost_proto-1.37.zip&directory=PDF%20Documentation&>
for the nice pdf documentation.
May be, Eric will oblige us by penning down the greatest library in
boost: proto in a book form in very near future.
I look forward to a book on proto.

Wow, thanks. I don't have plans to write a Proto book, though. It's so
niche, I doubt there would be enough people who would buy it.
Thanks Eric for blessing us with this library. I think that the proto documentation is decently rich to serve the basic and advanced purpose for now. We will try to learn from it till someday you changes your plan to write a Proto book. In my opinion, the audience for this book will be no less than those who have read BGL and MPL books. I am hoping that under your mentorship someone will soon write the book. And it will be like another organum in the spirit of Novum_Organum http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novum_Organum . I was terrorized to see the example in proto which implements a simple lambda DSEL using proto. It is a great code cutter I guess. Do you think that the boost lambda will eventually be re-written using proto in near future? Or maybe the rest of the boost libraries(including GIL, BGL) will be re-written too in proto? Many a thanks for showing us the pinnacle of c++.
