When Boost::signals will be thread-safe?

Hi
Boost::signals are not thread-safe
http://boost.org/doc/html/signals/s04.html#id2738867
"Boost.Signals will support thread safety in the future."
I would like to know when this feature will be implemented, if somebody
is working on it.
I like very much the fact that Qt slot/signals are thread safe, it helps
really a *lot* :
"the slot is invoked when control returns to the event loop of the
thread to which the object belongs. The slot is executed in the thread
where the receiver object lives."
http://doc.trolltech.com/4.1/threads.html
Do you plan also to make Boost::signals executed in the thread where the
receive object lives?
Thanks in advance for your answers
Regards,

Unfortunately, nobody is working on it at this point. It is highly unlikely that I (personally) will find the time to do so any time soon. This is an issue that has been outstanding for years :( Doug
