Why do you think so? Spirit is already been developed independently and Robert R. clearly intends to do the same with Serialization. I'm sure that for them it would be easier to release their libraries against a stable release of the rest of Boost than against a moving target.
I wouldn't call what I plan to do as develop independently. I just want run my own tests against a stable code base that everyone has and make the changes available to anyone who wants them. I expect to check in changes with whatever system boost decides to use. A side effect of this is that I make the defaut test set smaller and add the tests that I now need to add but cannot because they take too long.
DOES ANYONE OBJECT TO MY DOING THIS? WHY?
If you are going to "make the changes available to anyone who wants them" by checking them into a branch in the Boost SVN repo, I think it's fine. In fact, I think it will pretty much line up with Beman's proposal. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com Don't Miss BoostCon 2007! ==> http://www.boostcon.com
