Hi chaps / chappettes I am interested in including the latest released copy of Boost with the CD for my forthcoming book, Imperfect C++, to be published by Addison-Wesley this year. I have two questions: 1. Is Boost redistributable in this form? If so, from whom do I get written permission to do so? 2. What is the likely latest version of Boost that will be available around the end of Feb / beginning of March? Thanks in advance -- Matthew Wilson Director, Synesis Software (www.synesis.com.au) STLSoft moderator (http://www.stlsoft.org) Contributing editor, C/C++ Users Journal (www.synesis.com.au/articles.html#columns) -----------------------------------------------------

Yes. There's no need to get any extra written permission. The BGL book contained a CD with a version of Boost on it as well.
2. What is the likely latest version of Boost that will be available around the end of Feb / beginning of March?
It will be 1.31.x. x=0 most likely; x=1 if we have a showstopper in 1.31.0. Doug

Great!
Thanks for the info.
