I'm a beginner of boost development. And I don't know the process of boost peer review, and how a library is accepted (upgraded). Anyone can help me?

According to the submission process I've just reached the refinement stage with my GTL library. Some months back we discussed some of the implementation details of my library, including the unorthodox use of static cast from the unknown template parameter base type to the GTL derived type, which the group concluded was not safe according to the standard. Now that I have *finally* gotten permission to release the library to boost I was hoping that we could resume that discussion, come up with a workable alternative that satisfies everyone, and I can proceed to rewrite the library and "refine" it to the point that it is ready for formal review. I want to rewrite the library so that it will be acceptable for formal review. I was hoping for feedback on what changes you would like to see and whether you still believe pursuing eventual review is worthwhile, now that you can see the code and we can share specifics of the algorithms. Is everyone particularly busy right now preparing for an upcoming release or the boost conference in Aspen? Thanks, Luke
