besides: competition often leads to better products, imo clang is the best thing that happened to gcc ... i had my troubles with boost.test myself, so also from the perspective of the user it would be very helpful to have two libraries with a similar interface, which could be exchanged by using a different namespace or macro prefix.
that said, i have no idea, why you strongly dislike richard's offer
Presumable it is because Richard's offer -- which I trust was genuine offer of engineering help -- actually sounded like an offer to take over something that Gennadiy has spent years creating, over close to 900 commits. The resulting response was rather on the polite side, even. I don't know whether damage done in this thread, and in other exchanges about boost.test, can be undone :-( - Volodya
