I personally was looking for a way for me to actively continue working on boost after my GSoC project is completed.
Is there a boost library that particularly interests you?
My main interests are template based design patterns related to data structures and algorithms (I know that's large topic, its really ALL of boost). If I had to pick a library I think I would pick the Boost.MPL or Boost.Fusion. I like templates and meta-programming, so what would you suggest?
MPL then. Aleksey isn't very active anymore, and Dave is swamped.
And I'm only an honorary co-author of that library anyhow.
And if not a library, then docs or test or website or infrastructure. Where do you think you'd like to help?
I would like to start out bug fixing and anything that involves complicated programming.
I can do website stuff if there is need for it, but from what I have read on list I can't tell if there has been a decision made to actually do something about the website or not.
Not sure yet. Dave and I will need help with website stuff eventually. Our ryppl-ized version of Boost will have a different architecture, and we will certainly need a new website to reflect that.
Urr... websites are a bit out of scope for Ryppl as I imagined it. Dean Michael Berris is working on a wordpress-ized Boost site (http://www2.boost.org/2010/06/01/hello-world/), though, and if you want to help with infrastructure you could always dive into Ryppl itself.
