Finally, a philosophical point.
I'm slowly coming to the realization that the problem we're having is not caused by lack of process or lack of tools. It's caused by the fact that release management (at this point) is a full time job.
Philosophical? Sounds entirely practical to me.
Peter, with all due respect (and much is due), "no duh!" The question is, what makes it a full time job?
A few things come to mind, belatedly. It's a big job, because Boost is a big collection of libraries. It's a hard job, involving cat herding and code herding. It's not the kind of job that many eyeballs make shallow.
