We have been and will continue to work this. However, we added wstream and other features (awhile ago now) which are simply not supported in many compilers. So we will just be marking these failed.
OK, sounds good.
In addition, we have stopped 'covering up' for bad compilers / standard libraries. In the past we had macros that would swap out some tests on VC6 and other compilers to make the tests look better. We've now removed these and are letting these tests fail. So again we need to mark more tests as failing. I believe this will help people better understand the limits of using old compilers, etc...
Sure. Looking forward towards the marked-up picture.
As for the boost book conversion -- all the xml is all checked in. I just need to do the changes in the top level. Probably later today.
Excellent. Thanks for the update! -- Aleksey Gurtovoy MetaCommunications Engineering
