Hi,

I have been working in a C++ library like Apache Digester (http://commons.apache.org/digester). I'm intending to convert it following boost policies described in Requirements and Guidelines.

What are the chances of it become a Boost library ?

Digester is a curious library, extremely well suited for some domains, but largely unusable in many. Let's not forget that it was originally developed as part of Tomcat, to translate the configuration into an object tree. I think it might be accepted, but if you don't take care to clearly communicate the limitation of the digester approach, you risk many people expecting the wrong thing. Sebastian
