Since more than 50 releases there has been one minor release number change (1.x -> 1.(x+1)) after the other. No distinction.
That's not actually true. See: http://www.boost.org/users/history/ e.g. 1.46.1, 1.34.1, 1.33.1. They've happened less often since we adopted a regular release schedule.
Maybe this can be achieved with distributed boost?
Distributed is largely irrelevant here, unless there are volunteers to maintain a stable fork? Improved branching could help, but the idea seems to be that modularization will change the way releases are handled.
