Should have some code / structure in place for discussion soon. First thing to agree on is the basic directory structure and header linkage philosophy. Moving house over the next couple of days so contact will be a little sparodic. Note, I'm in Sydney so I work in a different time zone to most.
Seems like a good start. As for compilers, I generally use VC7.1 and gcc-4.0.1 (compiled for win32). I have access to VC6 if required. I think we should try and make it a header-only library akin to most of the rest of boost, if we can; having to link in a separate library is a source of pain for users, especially if it has to be linked as a separate DLL. I appreciate that there are some areas which might require this, but if we can avoid the requirement when these areas are not used, that would be good (don't pay for what you don't use).
