Hi,
Is the Boost Trac system intended for official libraries only, or can we also use it for (to be) proposed libraries? Seems OK to me to use it for proposed libraries, as long as the use wouldn't cause confusion between proposed and accepted libraries.
I suspect confusion is very likely -- in particular, having bug report against proposed library with target milestone of 1.40 would be fairly confusing. Or, maybe there's some technical measure to limit possible values of properties for bug reports?
How about just name the component clearly, i.e. "[prop] FooBar" and then remove the tag once accepted. (And choose a good prefix scheme that make the proposed libraries end up last in the list.)
I think it would be *very* useful - but someone needs to work out the details. An extra target milestone might be 'Review'? Paul --- Paul A. Bristow Prizet Farmhouse Kendal, UK LA8 8AB +44 1539 561830, mobile +44 7714330204 pbristow@hetp.u-net.com
