Gmane going away
by Tom Kent 07 Sep '16

07 Sep '16

So it looks like Gmane is under attack and the guy who runs it is thinking about just turning it off (that would be sad). https://lars.ingebrigtsen.no/2016/07/28/the-end-of-gmane/ Anyway, I know a lot of boost users use is as the gnu mailman archive pages are really hard to use. I would like to propose that we (specifically the list owner(s)) mirror the boost mailing lists to the mail-archive.com site. It has good search features and decent thread browse-ability. Thoughts?

compiling boost using C++11 atomics
by André Draszik 30 Aug '16

30 Aug '16

Hi, Is there any particular reason that boost isn't being compiled with BOOST_AC_USE_STD_ATOMIC and BOOST_SP_USE_STD_ATOMIC (by default) when C++11 support in g++ is available (g++ >= 4.7)? Thanks, Andre'

[PropertyTree] Pull request removing usage of typeid()
by Chris Glover 29 Aug '16

29 Aug '16

Hi, In February, I submitted a pull request that removes the usage of typeid from property_tree and replaces it with boost.type_index. This allows me to use property_tree with rtti disabled, which I need sometimes. https://github.com/boostorg/property_tree/pull/20 I've had no feedback on the change. Can it be merged? Thanks, -- chris

[graph] Dinic's algorithm and BGL
by Зайцев Александр 29 Aug '16

29 Aug '16

Hello. In the Boost Graph Library i can't find Dinic's algorithm (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinic%27s_algorithm) I think there isn't implementation of this algo in the library. Why? Best regards, Alexander Zaitsev.

[algorithm] Adding suffix automata, suffix array
by Зайцев Александр 29 Aug '16

29 Aug '16

Hello. I implemented Aho-Corasick to Boost.Algorithm. It's very useful algorithm, but i think that there are more useful algorithms, like suffix automata and suffix array. They can solve a lot of specific task on sequences of values: searching subsequences, count number of different subsequence, etc. Can i start work on it? ----- Best regards, Alexander Zaitsev.

[Boost.Book] How to go full-bleed on documentation image headers?
by Vinnie Falco 29 Aug '16

29 Aug '16

On the Boost website, the image in documentation headers is full bleed (no white border). For example: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_61_0/doc/html/boost_asio.html How do I achieve this in my own documentation? I have set the image in the Jamfile, but I have no idea how to adjust the border: http://vinniefalco.github.io/beast/index.html The Jamfile and supporting source files are here: https://github.com/vinniefalco/Beast/tree/master/doc Thanks
