My current plans for it (and its siblings) is to transition
from
MWCWPro to XCode (gcc), to add valarray support to the various special functions (it was on the way, and is locally partially implemented), and further on to replace the quaternion/octonion input operators by something sane, probably based upon Spirit.
FYI, Reece Dunne's output formatting library (now slightly misnamed, since it also handles input) contains facilties for reading and writing boost quaternions and octonions. It is in the sandbox under outfmt.

That looks extremely interesting! However, I have a feeling (perhaps eroneously, given that I only started to look at it), that the support in outfmt is there only for the simplest variants of quaternion and octonion inputs. I was under the impression that a full-fledged parser was needed to clean the awfullness that are my current implementations (an octonion parser which might call a quaternion parser which might call a complex parser (or rely on the standard library input),...).
