This is a reminder to urge Boost developers to add their names to http://www.boost.org/more/blanket-permission.txt if applicable. In fact, I would also like to see a list of authors who explicitly don't want their libraries be subject to the new Boost license.
If anybody wants me to do a license conversion for them, I'd be more than happy to. Just contact me, let me know what library you want converted, and I will send you back the patches.
As long as some of the wide-spread libraries (MPL, smart_ptr, etc.) keep their old license, libraries that depend on these are effectively still limited.
I think we're going to have to be more pro-active about this or it'll never get done. It would help if someone would go through the common code in the boost/detail directory and ask the authors for permission to change their licenses, after that we can hit on individual libraries. John.
