Hi Boosters, I've tried several times to contact Bill Kempf about moving forward with threads, even leaving him messages on his home answering machine. I've had no reply. It's important that we make an effort to move Boost towards a uniform licensing scheme, and the threads library is an especially important one to do that for. We've been talking about significant restructuring in this library; is it likely that we'll get to a point where the original code can be thrown out? That may be the only way we'll be able to change the license. IMO the docs really *need* to be thrown out and re-done, even if the design were to stay substantially the same. Thoughts? -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com
