well, it would be great if the review would actually happen within a time frame of 3 months. unfortunately, it is a bit different in reality: the boost.lockfree library is on the review queue for more than a year. with 6 reviews per year (like in 2010) and 15 libraries earlier in the queue, i don't expect a review to happen before 2013. in a way, this is kind of nice since the dependency to boost.atomic (c++0x-atomics for c++-98) will hopefully be obsolete since compilers may already be reasonably c++0x-compliant.
so a time frame of 3 months is probably more a time frame of 3 years :/
I am not suggesting that any newly submitted library can possibly be reviewed in 3 months. I am just suggesting that if a review manager is set, then the date is also set within next 3 months to avoid having a library in the limbo state. -- Vladimir Prus Mentor Graphics +7 (812) 677-68-40
