The master branch is is now open for post-beta merges, but only as described in the Post-Beta Merge Policy. See https://github.com/boostorg/wiki/wiki/Releases%3A-Beta-Merge-Policy Reminder: The master branch closes for the release on Wednesday, August 4th. Full calendar here: https://www.boost.org/development/ https://www.boost.org/development/ — Marshall P.S Doc changes and test changes do NOT require release manager approval to be merged.

I'm just back from annual vacation during which I did not have much access to internet. Before I left I prodded boostorg/outcome master branch to get updated to match standalone master, but it didn't go through, so the beta retains the Outcome from the previous Boost release.

Can I get permission to fix this now? I pushed a hand conversion of Outcome master branch to https://github.com/boostorg/outcome/compare/master.future?expand=1 so you can see it (ignore the docs changes, I didn't regenerate those for this hand conversion). As you'll see, the only changes are to build scripting (mostly cmake), and there are a few small bug fixes in the C++. Nothing substantial has changed.

Go ahead.

Can I get a second permission to fix a bug in Experimental Outcome's status code whereby a status_code wrapped error_code does not compare correctly if the error_code's default condition's category is bespoke? (It's a tiny corner case bug fix) Niall
