Hi, is there a chance to change the current logo on the organization list https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizations/?sp-page=5 with https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boost_(C%2B%2B-Bibliothek)#/media/File:Boost.… The current image on the google summer of code page does not look too good and all other organization have smooth ones. Best Cem

Regarding project idea for GSOC 2019
by Syed Souban 04 Mar '19

04 Mar '19

Hi guys! I am a machine learning enthusiast looking forward to work in implementing some machine learning algorithms in c++ as a gsoc 2019 project. I know that a similar project has been done last year. So in a way I want to extend to that idea. I needed some suggestions and or pointers on which algorithms are feasible to implement. Regards, Souban

Re: [boost] Review request for variant2, review manager wanted
by Peter Dimov 03 Mar '19

03 Mar '19

> If anyone would like to step forward to manage the review, please do. Michael Caisse was the first to graciously offer his services (via Slack) and I'll be glad to have him manage the review. Thanks to Niall who also volunteered. :-) With respect to Niall's request for compile time and run time measurements, I've added a benchmark https://github.com/pdimov/variant2/blob/develop/benchmark/benchmark1.cpp and the results from compiling and running it on my machine are at https://github.com/pdimov/variant2/blob/develop/benchmark/benchmark1.md This is not a cherry-picked example that makes variant2 look good, so it loses to std::variant here and there. :-)

Runtime code generation

03 Mar '19

I am trying to write a grammar based code but can't seems to find starting point. Is there anything I should go through first. Grammar based . All the functions are written in string formats by user and parsed into binary at runtime and are able to use that function.

[release][multi_index] Permission to merge to master
by Joaquin M López Muñoz 03 Mar '19

03 Mar '19

I'm asking permission to merge the following fairly trivial changes to master: https://github.com/boostorg/multi_index/compare/bbb915bd344463ba767aebe7988… Travis and AppVeyor tests are passing. BTW, the conditions for allowed commits at this release stage ("closed for major changes") are not clear to me. Do I really need to ask for permission if the change (as is this case) is deemed minor?

Here's what the config_info is: https://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/output/teeks99-te… I'm disappointed that we can't have general support for future versions of msvc. We don't seem to have this problem with pre-release versions of GCC/Clang. https://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/output/teeks99-02… Tom
