Stable doesn't mean perfect.
If that's the case you need to make that clear in your descriptions. Because it seems to say the opposite. But I wasn't talking about perfection either. Most of the list above isn't a "we need to fix something", but a "we have no clue what needs fixing". This is because we just don't know what the bugs really are. Since we don't test most of what people use Boost for. Hence I personally can't call the Boost release "stable" under most definitions, except perhaps to mean "unchanging". -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - grafikrobot/yahoo
