What's the point of recursive regexes since we have xpressive?
xpressive can do that with static regexes, but not dynamic ones (interpreted strings). However, you can view that as a "seeder" proposal to get things started if you wish. Aside: last year we mostly had "big" projects - write a new library from scratch and so on - and as you may have noticed so far only one has come to review. It's true that there are more in the works, but I notice that many of the other projects had their students submitting patches to their existing code base, with more of a series of targets, rather than "one big hit" hoped for at the end. I'd be interested in hearing whether people think a similar approach - for some of our projects anyway - would be beneficial for Boost too. John.
