gennadiy, from my understanding of the boost license, richard is free to fork boost.test and you have to right to forbid this ... if his design is better or worse or may or may not clash with boost.test is not your decision to do.
This is absolutly true. He is free to do whatever he wants. Whenther or not this should be part of the boost: I can express my opinion on this subject when time comes.
that said, i have no idea, why you strongly dislike richard's offer (and
Richard NEVER offered anything aside from "I can take over".
i don't care), but if you look for help ... what about taking advantage of the recent migration to git: anyone, including richard, could fix issues and submit pull requests. you just have to review the code and press a button. still you may want to close trac tickets if the bugs are fixed.
That will work for me fine. Short term I am looking for people to work with me on new documentation and pushing release out. Maintanence mode will come next. I have one person who expressed interest. We bothare busy professionals, so if anyone else is interested, you are still welcome to join ;) Gennadiy
