Interesting, does that mean that the review process is separated between the review of "interface and documentation" and a review of the "implementation" (later) ?
In that case, I suppose the 'interface and doc' review would be done only if there is at least 1 working implementation -ensuring that the reviewed interface is somewhat usable- ?
I think, as long as Boost is a collection of libraries, only more-or-less complete libraries will be reviewed at all suggested levels (i.e. not abstract interfaces). The difference between the levels is the level of interface stability and the level of requirements for the library to get accepted.
