3) I'd like to (when I can find the time) start pushing the binaries for each release into some of the new package management systems (conan, vcpkg, etc).
vcpkg does not do binary distributions, but it has boost in it's list of packages. They also go by Robert's idea to simply provide the latest and the greatest, no if but or maybe's. One does not need to be a rocket scientist to figure out that, when talking about going forward, Microsoft will eventually fully integrate vcpkg into Visual Studio, once vcpkg has left the infant stage. GitHub and CMake are already fully integrated into Visual Studio, the next step seems obvious. It constitutes a coherent and deliberate strategy from where I'm sitting. degski PS: I don't know, whether Kitware Inc. has any publicly traded shares, but if so, now seems a good time to buy them. -- *“If something cannot go on forever, it will stop" - Herbert Stein* *“No, it isn’t truth.
