Re: [boost] IOStreams formal review

While having streambuf_facade is DEFINITELY a good idea, I think you should have an "Advanced" section, where you talk about the streambufs. The rest of us are quite happy with having and using stream_facade.

I get the impression that most of the reviewers have an objection against the uses of streams. The consensus seems to be that the library should restrict itself to a (binary) streambuf interface. Almost everyone has complained one way or the other about the mixup of streams versus streambufs. -- Carlo Wood <carlo@alinoe.com>
