[snip: proposal]
These seem to be good ideas. I agree that C++ is in need of a new I/O system built on proper abstractions. It may make sense for one to be implemented as part of Boost. As a side note, in doing so it is important to be extremely cautious with the use of template meta-programming, as horrendous compile-times are a real barrier to the use of certain libraries. I do not suggest that all template use be avoided, of course, but merely that it be far more limited than other Boost libraries. -- Jeremy Maitin-Shepard
