But I'm not sure that this is a good reason to not maintain a library which has been accepted into Boost. We've created an expectation that everything in boost meets a certain standard and I'm wary of setting that aside for any reason. I'm sure those who recommended the acceptance of the library had every expectation that it would be maintained if accepted. Do you think that the acceptance should be reversed and the library withdrawn?
It's not unmaintained, and the library "as is" is very useful: it's just that a planned new feature has been dropped pending further investigation. At least that's my reading of things. And yes, floating point formats are a nightmare ;) John.
