If there are issues fixed in develop branch, it would help a lot to inform users by updating the tickets accordingly.
Here is a blanket update message: at this point all the issues with Boost.Test are fixed on devel branch ;).
a) fixes are useless to users if they are not made available. read: not merged from develop to master. if you fail to do that for whatever reason, don't call it "fixed". b) 'blanked update messages' about anything that is done on an a develop branch, is useless for people who are submitting and/or watching tickets. ---- if for whatever reason you are not able to maintain boost.test or cannot devote any time on this, you might want to accept help from others. that said: i had been in the situation that tests for one of my boost libraries failed in the master branch due to bugs in boost.test, which "are fixed in develop". it is simply unacceptable for a framework like boost not to be able to rely on its own testing library. br, tim
