Hi All, We thought this might happen because of the Thanksgiving holiday, and it did: we are extending the review period for the Meta State Machine library until Dec 13th. However, please don't let that delay your review; we'd like to see them all as soon as possible. Msm was written by Christophe Henry, inspired in part by the example in the book "C++ Template Metaprogramming" (http://boostpro.com/mplbook) About the library: Msm (Meta State Machine) is a library allowing the user to easily define high-performance, straightforward and readable UML2 finite state machines, while respecting the principles of efficiency and declarativeness of the original example. To that end, Msm offers several Domain-Specific Embedded Languages that strive to closely emulate a standard UML diagram. Msm supports a broad range of UML features: - state entry/exit - transition actions/guards - composite states - history - orthogonal regions - terminate states - deferred events - explicit entry/fork - entry/exit pseudostates - anonymous transitions - transition conflicts And several non-standard features to make the developer's life easier (interrupt states, query about the current state(s)). Msm (in its current version, 2.0) can be found: * in the sandbox (http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/msm/) * or in the vault: (http://www.boostpro.com/vault/index.php?directory=Msm) Everybody on this list is invited to participate in this formal review. I hope to see your review of Msm, including your vote on acceptance, and I welcome your participation in the ensuing discussions on the Boost developers' mailing list. Please always include in your review a vote as to whether the library should be accepted into Boost. Additionally please consider giving feedback on the following general topics: - What is your evaluation of the design? - What is your evaluation of the implementation? - What is your evaluation of the documentation? - What is your evaluation of the potential usefulness of the library? - Did you try to use the library? - With what compiler? - Did you have any problems? - How much effort did you put into your evaluation? A glance? A quick reading? In-depth study? - Are you knowledgeable about the problem domain? -- David Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://boostpro.com
