Hi All,
I know I'm not the first person to notice that, as Boost has grown, it has become harder and harder to manage, Subversion is getting slow, our issue tracker is full to overflowing, and the release process is a full-time job. For me, this situation has taken a lot of the fun out of participating. It's time to make Boost development fun again.
Not sure how much time I can offer, but I'd like to contribute to testing on Linux. At my company, we have some hundred modules (mostly libraries and plugins) with a nice amount of dependencies. Our current build system is based on CMake. I'd be interested in seeing how the two systems compare, and (maybe) offering one or two suggestions, too... A question from a user and occasional contributor to the overflowing bug tracker, hoping that you can provide an answer without compromising the dramatics for BoostCon :-) How could decentralization influence the overflowing bug tracker?
