Historically, Spirit had its own release cycle. Spirit 1.8.4 will be released in the next few days. You can get a beta snapshot here:
http://spirit.sourceforge.net/dl_more/spirit-1.8.4.beta1.zip http://spirit.sourceforge.net/dl_more/spirit-1.8.4.beta1.tar.gz
These betas are provided to make sure that all is ok. We appreciate feedback and reporting of problems encountered. We'd like to make sure that the packages are in perfect shape before we do the final release.
Roadmap:
* Spirit 1.8.4 release
* Soon after the release of Spirit 1.8.4, Spirit 1.8.5 will follow. Spirit 1.8.5 is the bridge to Spirit-2. Spirit 1.8.5 integrates Fusion2 and Phoenix2. It is already in the final stages of development. Spirit 1.8.5 is not 100% backward compatible to Spirit 1.8.4. We shall provide some documents to make the transition as smooth as possible. The difference is minimal. Hopefully, 1.8.5 (and subsequent releases) will ease the transition to 2.0.
* Development of Spirit-2 shall proceed parallel to Spirit 1.8.5++.
Just a few questions to clear some confusion: 1) Is Spirit 1.8.4 the same Spirit that is currently in Boost CVS? 2) Which version of Boost does Spirit 1.8.4 use? 3) Which version of Spirit will be a part of Boost 1.34? Regards, Arkadiy
