Re: [boost] Vault: still needed?

Hi All,

For some time now, Boostpro Computing has been hosting the Boost file valut, but now that Boost has a great Subversion host I'm beginning to wonder whether the vault is still needed. What's the case for holding onto it when people could just check their speculative work into the sandbox and subsequently merge smoothly into the Boost trunk if it is accepted?

I use the Vault to distribute .zip archives of newer versions of my libraries. I wouldn't want to have to tell people they need a subversion client to get out-of-band bug fixes and features. I say leave it alone. My $0.02, -- Eric Niebler BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
