Hi Boris,
I just wanted to chime in and say that I think this book is fabulous. I read a large part of it about a year ago, and am thrilled to see it getting such a substantial update. While the Boost documentation is usually more than enough to get started, your book does an excellent job of filling in the gaps when it comes to how a certain library might be used in practice, things to be aware of etc. Even though the book is free to read online, I'll order it at some point just to support the project. Keep up the good work! Kind regards, Philip Bennefall
