Hey everyone,
Hi Matt, good to see you back!
It's been a while since I've made an appearance on this list, but I was contacted regarding the recent discussion of concepts here and Lorenzo's taking the reins of a concept library, and decided to poke my head in. First, I apologize to the community for not getting Boost.Generic on the sandbox earlier (if you are unfamiliar with Boost.Generic, see my 2011 BoostCon talk http://blip.tv/boostcon/boost-generic-concepts-without-concepts-5262126 and/or the corresponding slides https://github.com/boostcon/2011_presentations/raw/master/thu/Boost.Generic.... ). I've gotten numerous emails about it since 2011 and I decided to commit the current state of Boost.Generic to the sandbox today. It is still based on the "old" concepts of C++0x with pseudo-signatures. You can find it in the "generic" subdirectory of the sandbox. That said, I'm not sure anyone even cares about Boost.Generic anymore given that the standard seems to be diverging from how it originally was approaching concepts, but here it is anyway.
I will definitely take a look at your code (I've been scouting to find it somewhere in the last few months but without success, I'm really glad you are putting it into the sandbox). Thanks, --Lorenzo
