I think that these questions need to be addressed before a large and disruptive effort is undertaken piecemeal. I've always been a supporter of boost modularization effort even though I knew it was going to be disruptive. But before investing too much effort, I would like to see us develop a more explicit overall plan and set of goals. I've resolved to prepare a document - "the future of boost" which I hope will a basis of discussion. I realize I'm a TL;DR serial offender as I write many of my posts using the "stream of consciousness method". This time I'll prepare and review it separately before posting.
