This being the case, is there any point to any incremental work on BLL as it currently exists? I was talking with Gary Powell offline, and he'd said at some point there had been a desire to see BLL leverage more of MPL in its implementation, and I'd thought about taking some time to see if I could help in that direction. It doesn't make much sense,

Of course, Jaakko will have the final say on this. In any case, as far as Phoenix-2 is concerned, we're already very close to release as the remaining bits and pieces fall into place, thanks to Dan Marsden who did most of the final chores. Phoenix-2 already (heavily) leverages MPL and its half-runtime counterpart fusion.
Phx/LL merger means that the current lambda code base will largely be replaced by new code in the Boost distribution. So no, I wouldn't spend too much time on cleaning the current code up. Best, Jaakko
