The VMD library submitted by Edward Diener is ACCEPTED into Boost.
I apologize for the long delay for this announcement.
Thanks to everyone who participated in the formal review * Nial Douglass * Bjorn Reese * Rodrigo Madera * Zhou Zhenghui * Matt Calabrese * Paul Mensonides
Reviews for the library were generally positive. The library was considered to be a useful set of tools for macro programmers. Paul expressed concern about the way the the library handles v-sequences and v-identifiers. After some discussion, Edward has agreed that the interface could be significantly improved.
Work Items: * Add examples and improved motivation in the documentation * Update the v-identifier/v-sequence interface based on Paul's comments * Fix inaccurate statements about Boost.Preprocessor per Paul
Thank you very much, Steven. I have revamped and simplified the macro interfaces and am working on updating the documentation. I am not sure I will be finished in time for Boost 1.58 but I will definitely have the library ready for Boost 1.59. Once I am finished with my updated documentation and am satisfied I have met my goals in making the library easier to use I will post a message on these forums and whoever is interested in the library and its functionality can take a look at the updated functionality and make whatever comments they like. I do not know if the improved and added functionality will need any further mini-review but I will let others decide on that once I am finished.
