1. Adding an optional stack_size parameter to thread::start_thread()
This has been suggested a few times including once by me; see e.g. http://search.gmane.org/search.php?group=gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel&query=stack+size Since those previous discussions, though, threads have been added to the C++ standard, and the thread class in the standard doesn't include this. It is conceivable that Boost.Thread might continue to evolve and gain more features [maybe Anthony will comment], but I think it's more likely that people will use std::thread instead and we will have to learn to live with fixed stack sizes. (Or write our own thread classes, which is simple enough if we're not concerned with portability.) Regards, Phil.
