Irrespective of the merits of the various licences, I would remind everyone that it took us the better part of 2 years last time we changed licences... and Boost has grown immeasurably larger since then.

New libraries can be licensed under improved licences so long as they are compatible with the Boost licence and meet the licence requirements at http://www.boost.org/development/requirements.html.
Good point indeed.. But so far in this thread non of the licenses mentioned meet those requirements. Perhaps someone, with legal acumen, could go the OSS licenses https://opensource.org/licenses/alphabetical and indicate which ones meet the Boost requirements. -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail
