There is a fresh draft of a Boost Development Environment proposal up at http://mysite.verizon.net/beman/development_environment.html
This is a very well thought-out piece. I see one minor problem with it: it depends on additional work from the developers, namely, explicit merge requests. I'm afraid that the principle of least resistance will result in work happening on -devel and -stable stagnating due to lack of merge requests.
Hmmm - I don't see that happening at all. Developer's want to get their stuff to users. In fact, I expect some anxious developers will want to see their stuff merged into the stable tree before its tested because "its a trivial change". What I like about this proposal is that makes developers work easier instead of adding to it as other proposals do. Robert Ramey
