"Essentially, Boost needs to sell itself as something that no C++ programmer would want to be without. Think how the adman would write it: "C++ getting you down?

While I completely agree, I can't help but mention that people fluent in this kind of language are rarely found among those involved into open source development :-) Regards, Arkadiy
