say that 1.46 will be closed for new libraries tomorrow. I believe we have two libraries that were accepted, but not released. On those, Interval Containers library appears to have been merged to release branch already. The other one, Ratio, does not appear to be present in trunk, and therefore is not likely to be included in 1.46.
The next deadline is on Jan 10, when the trunk will be closed for major changes.
Boost 1.45 was release on November 19 and one month later the next release is closed to new libraries. Is this the normal Boost policy regarding releases ? I ask that only because it seems it leaves little time between the one release and the next ( one month ) for new libraries to get into the next release. I do realize that Boost is on a quarterly release cycle, and do appreciate that fact, but that each release has only a month ( or 1/3 of the 3 months allotted time frame), to bring in new libraries from the previous release does seem a bit limiting.
