I didn't remember running across implicit_cast, so went looking for its documentation. I found various uses and tests (in the conversion library), but found no documentation for implicit_cast in the boost_1_33_1 release.
Right. But so what?

Well, a one or two line comment in its header file (implicit_cast.hpp), at the very least, describing what it does wouldn't be too much to ask, in my opinion. Since, historically, you've been the champion of fighting against terse documentation and ambiguous/overly technical, yet meaning nothing to the average Joe documentation, I think you would agree with the first statement.
Oh, I agree. It's just not an "official" part of any Boost library yet. Since I am an author of the cast library I could slip it in there without too much formality, but I haven't had time to write docs or tests. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
