To echo David - wow, that was some review from Daniel!
I should perhaps have been clear - my vote to accept Phoenix still stands.
There's just too much good stuff in it to turn it down!
Thanks for the pats-on-the-back! And of course, I'm not lobbying to change anyone's vote. There are lots of valid reasons to vote for acceptance. Also, just to clarify, none of the good stuff in Phoenix2 will be turned down as a result of this review. Phoenix is currently distributed with Boost.Spirit and that should definitely remain the case. So, voting no does not mean removing Phoenix from Boost. What's at issue is whether/how Phoenix should be distributed as a top-level, Boost-reviewed library. IMHO, I think Phoenix should be distributed as a major upgrade of Boost.Lambda. Voting yes, as far as I can tell, means distributing Phoenix2 as it's own top-level library - Boost.Phoenix - at least for some period of time, which I don't agree with. But then perhaps there is some confusion as to what exactly is being reviewed. Daniel Walker
