None the less quite a number of very well known projects seem to have accepted it: perl, gcc, gdb, tcl etc etc.
Personally I *would* rather like to see Boost put through a static analysis tool on a regular basis: so I'm wondering if we should bite the bullet and sign up for this?

I've researched Coverity in the past (and taken a class from one of the founders), and was convinced enough of its usefulness that I had planned on proposing that Boost sign up. I believe it would help improve the correctness and security of the code, which would certainly increase usage of Boost at my place of employ. Jeremy Pack
