Incidentally, feelings on XP support seem very muted this time round, with everyone agreeing we should drop it after the next Boost release. I admit surprise on the consensus.
For what it's worth, as a Boost consumer I still care about Boost working on XP -- however for the application that I need to still work on XP, I'm ok with requiring that it use a specific Boost version and no later (it's already using one several versions behind the current release). I'm in favour of Boost changing its default _WIN32_WINNT setting to Vista/Win7, although *if possible* it would be nice if the application author could still choose to set it back to XP and have most of Boost still work.
