Hi,
I was just going through the boost-announce archives. I knew that some libraries that had passed review never made it into CVS, but I had no idea it was so many. Do we have somewhere a record of the status of all these libraries so I can see an accucrate record?
The record is kept here:
http://www.boost.org/more/formal_review_schedule.html
I believe it is pretty accurate.
But all the rows indicating acceptance also say the libraries were added. I'm trying to find the accepted libraries that were accepted but not added. Well, it says IndexedSet was added, but I can't find libs/indexed*. Did it change names to MultiIndex maybe?
Hmm, I'm not sure about that one.
The page says OutputFormatters was rejected. I guess I was misled by the boost-announce posting that said:
"Pending Acceptation". In other words, it's considered Accepted by default, but since it will be redesigned, a new short review will take place.
which I guess is equivalent to rejection. The wording of this announcement was different from that for other reviews. I suppose it might be better marked "Accepted Provisionally". I was in contact with the authors of this library for a time and unfortunately they were not able to prepare it for a new review, so it's now equivalent to rejected since the provisions are not being met.
The page doesn't mention CollectionTraits.
That might be a reference to Container Traits, which was accepted, but renamed to Boost.Range. ron
