Hi, Forgive me if this post strays into territory beyond Boost, but I was looking at the Adobe library http://stlab.adobe.com/group__poly__related.html and some of the research papers by Sean Parent et al. describing it, which I guess many people on this list will be familiar with. Is there any reason why this library/something akin has not been put into Boost? I guess is because nobody has made a proposal. Is it simply that it will always live in Adobe Source Libraries and there is no point duplicating in Boost?
I don't know if the Adobe license (MIT) is compatible with Boost license.
That's not a problem. Sean has already stated many times his willingness to relicense anything in the ASL for inclusion into Boost. The only reason it hasn't been proposed here is that, well, nobody has made the proposal. -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
