We are proud to publish the first Boost Release Report, for 1.87.0. This report is designed to showcase and credit the work of the many volunteers who contribute to the libraries and other things in Boost, published as an official release three times a year.

This is interesting... somewhat, but I'm not sure how useful it is at present, or how well it reflects the overall "health" of your favorite library. Something that might be useful to see, would be two lists: one of libraries with no commits, and one with no issues fixed. That might help focus minds on which libraries need community assistance, and which should quite frankly be deprecated. I notice that some of the libraries listed only have "infrastructure" commits which would also count as "no real maintenance". BTW if this is intended for end users, then I think something closer to a "press release" - with all the work entailed in writing that - would be much more appropriate. Please do keep experimenting with this though. Best, John.
