Just a question, why review v2 and not v3, which addresses some of v2 issues like non-standard type deduction protocol?
Because it's not ready yet V3 is in alpha. V2 OTOH had years of deployment behind it. It's already in extensive use, not just within the Spirit community. I could have easily "fixed" the non-standard type deduction protocol in V2 but decided that breaking the interface should be done with care starting with v3. We value backward compatibility.
It also should have a clearer implementation, even if it may not be as efficient.
clearer implementation? What makes you think so? Because of proto? I don't agree. You can write very clear code with or without proto. Regards, -- Joel de Guzman http://www.boostpro.com http://spirit.sf.net
