The changes between this release and the last one are:
* Refined the use of Boost.Parameter. Now only fixedlength takes a parameter; the other options are non-parameter types, which simplifies both their use and their implementation.
I think you might want to clarify that, since “parameter” has a general meaning having nothing to do with the library.
* Minor redesign, taking advantage of proper policy-based design.
I've always wondered about this: is there a description somewhere of what constitutes “proper policy-based design?” I've never felt confident that I understood exactly what PBD is. Thanks, -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
