Wow, I have never seen that matrix before - that’s really useful - thanks for the link!
Honestly, a link to that should be prominently displayed on the top boost.org page. I see it now in the development->testing, but that’s kinda buried - especially since most users aren’t looking to develop for boost itself.
Indeed - it is quite well hidden and Google struggles to find it without exactly the right question ☹ I have the develop version bookmarked 😊 and that meets my needs. But I haven't found the equivalent for each Boost *release*. Since this contains the most detailed test results for each release, should we be keeping a copy of the regression report for master at the time of each release. Or have I not found these records yet? I believe that we should point users to these tables in the context of cxxstd support. Paul PS I note that the current https://www.boost.org/development/tests/master/developer/index.html Contains a reference to SVN health, but we have been using Git for some time now. Also the user summary link https://www.boost.org/development/tests/master/user/index.html is not working at present "Error extracting file: Error code 11 - No matching files were found." This summary is probably a more useful link - but saving for each release would be good. Should I raise a GitHub issue for this?
