[1.37.0 beta] Beta release available on SourceForge

1.37.0 beta 1 is available on SourceForge. See http://tinyurl.com/674rcl There is one known bug in the beta; the Getting Started Guide release number is still shown as 1.36.0. That will be fixed in the final release. There is one new library (Proto) in the release and numerous bug fixes and updates to existing libraries. The beta period will be approximately ten days. Please post bug reports to either the boost developer or user lists, but also let us hear about success stories too! Many thanks to Eric Niebler, Daniel James, Rene Rivera, Marshall Clow, the testers, and all the others who helped to get this beta release together. --Beman Dawes

Hi there,
first of all thanks for a great beta release. I have tested it with a fairly
complex application of mine, making heavy use of serialization (the core
dumps reported in a recent thread on the user's list seem to be gone -
great, thanks Robert :-), boost.threads, boost.asio, boost.bind, and smart
pointers. I have so far run into *no major* difficulties, but will of
course report issues as they arise.
***
A small, but from my point of view still significant, nuisance is that bug
report 2091 doesn't appear to have been fixed, although it is easy to cure
with a change of
typedef dst_adjustment_offsets

Not sure what the problem is, but gcc is 4.1.3 on debian testing.

No issue to build 1.37.0 beta 1 on cygwin with gcc cygwin version and win32 version (-mno-cygwin). Is there a way to run the full bunch of tests automatically? F.
