Greetings, I see the Boost.Pool is not making its way up to the C++ standards yet an it is very unfortunate given its great use. Boost.Pool provides an is_from() member function that does a simple range check and returns whether a pointer is part of the pool or not. This is a very useful function which I think should be part of the standards because it could be used for the global pool as well; i.e. the one used by operator ::new and ::delete. The benefits outweigh the costs. Thanks, -Phil
