I believe (2) is exactly what John is doing.

It's a mistake to think of John's range as being a refinement of the boost.range concept. If I have a non-const range and I pass it off to an algorithm that traverses it, will the range be modified or not?
Note: the range will *not* change (in case you pass it to a rng:: algorithm).
If it is passed by reference it will change. Should I be unconcerned about that possibility? I'm not sure. The sort of range that a container is will normally be passed by reference. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com
