Interestingly enough, at the Boost workshop at OOPSLA last week we discussed doing this for anyone bringing their first library up for review. A mentorship program, so to speak, where seasoned Boosters would help navigate the review process in the hope of bringing more libraries up to formal review.
Interesting. Would such a "mentor" be available throughout the development process, or would this only be for the last push towards the review?
Here is one question for you, however: do you think that this "contact person" needs to have solid knowledge of Unicode to be helpful for you?
Not necessarily. I'm not quite sure as of yet what being our contact person would imply (waiting for a response from HiG), so I can't say for sure, but me asking for a contact person is basically to keep my college happy! ;) I highly doubt we will be doing any development in collaboration with that person specifically, but rather the entire community, so strictly speaking, deep knowledge of Unicode shouldn't really be required. I will get back to you on that when I know for sure though! Regards - Erik
