* I note that is does not use an automated system like Doxygen of producing the reference information. This seems to unfortunate, especially as there seem to be plans to change some names. I think we can be sure that there will be a fair number of glitches in the documentation when this happens :-(
Although it is more work to start with (and does clutter the code - something that is made much less important by syntax coloring, so one can mentally ignore all the Doxygen comments) it does make it much, much easier to ensure that the code and the documentation of functions, classes... stay in step.
I would like to see the whole library Doxygen fully commented (ask if you think I can help) - replacing much of the current reference text.
Personally I wouldn't, sorry, but I'm still not completely sold on Doxygen :-(
* I note that I didn't get the Boost or navigation icons or fonts from the index.html sandbox site.
That will be a non-issue when merged to Trunk.
* The previous PDF version is fine (but of course lacking the new operators). A new PDF version is extremely desirable (ask if you think I can help).
Also a non-issue once it's merged to Trunk, as the type_traits PDF gets built for each release.
* Some simpler (trivial even) examples might help newcomers to the library? The examples given are 'interesting' but quite complicated.
* Floating point example(s) could refer to the Boost.Math library where type_traits are widely used?
* A few items could be updated for the latest compilers like VC2010?

Hehe, working on that now. In any case this is the "old" type_traits, not the extension under review. HTH, John.
