I would think that the testing/deployment process could update/export each library from a different place without much problem.
Not very clear what testing/deployment process mean here, but I think this can work fine.
I had more specific thoughts on this but as it became clear that this would be significant issue, I deleted them from my post to avoid confusing things.
However, I think there also should be simple ways of using subset of modules from boost without fetching them from a release of the complete thing.
This is the essential thing to me. I want to pick and choose which libraries I want to download and install (subject to requirements for pre-requisites) the combination of libraries I want to install. Also, I absolutley need to have library by library usage/download statistics. Basically, I want to eliminate the requirement that all boost developers use the same repository/system. It can be just as well left up to the developer which/what to use. Robert Ramey
