Wether we want a "C++14 only" Boost version is another thing.
What could it possibly achieve to have a Boost with only C++11 or above libraries or a Boost with only C++14 or above libraries, as opposed to having Boost as we have it now in which each library can choose what level of C++ support it requires ? I would really like to get a technical answer, as opposed to an emotional response about "moving forward" and "looking to the future" and "serving the entire C++ community", to that question by those who propose such ideas.

I repeat myself : whether we want to do it is another question. Is it worth doing it? I don't know. It needs a lot of resources and energy. What we as a Boost community could lost having additionally these new Boost versions?
Many of these are reasonable wishes. But I do not see what having a Boost version which supports only C++14 on up compilation has to do with any of them. Care to explain what facilities in C++14 on up is going to make any of your wishes happen ?
All of them. Are you requesting me you enumerate the C++11/C++14 new features? Vicente
