We aren't responsible anyway. Not shipping binaries means we will be making things harder for some users, especially newcomers to Boost. Now, the outcome of this discussion may be that we will no longer ship binaries because we cannot do it correctly for most use cases, but let's not pretend not doing so is a benefit to the end user.
This is all irrelevant anyway because we don't ship binaries except on Windows where we don't have a problem with them.
Hmmm - we ship binaries I presume in the form of DLLS and *.lib files. Which -std version are these compiled with? What if that is different then the -std version that the user compiles his ap with? Doesn't that create a number of problems? Weren't you the one who pointed this out?
Linux binaries are shipped by the distros, not us.
Hmmm - same question as above? if the binaries are compiled with one -std version but the user links in via static or dynamic link with a different -std version won't that create problems? Robert Ramey
