Hi, The name of Boost.Signal2 seems as the V2 of Boost.Signal. Is it the case?
Hmm... perhaps in a similar way to how Phoenix is planned to be Lambda V2, yes. Signals2 is a reimplementation of Boost.Signals to support thread safety, and if accepted, the plan mentioned by Doug Gregor and Frank Mori Hess would be to do a phased replacement of Boost.Signals by Boost.Signals2. I believe most of the implementation has been rewritten, but most of the interface kept the same (with additions related to thread-safety).

Thanks, now it is clear. I think that it is very important if the autors plan a replacement. Vicente
