Re: [boost] What happens when a Boost library is unmaintained?

Peter Simons wrote:

suppose that an accepted and officially distributed Boost library has become unmaintained, meaning that

a) the code is not developed any further,

b) reported bugs are not fixed, confirmed, or otherwise responded to, and

c) questions on the mailing list aren't answered,

then what is the procedure to deal with that situation?

I suppose the right procedure to take would be to look for a new maintainer. If no one is found, then drop the library from the official distribution.
