There is clearly not agreement within Boost that anything should be done at all regarding modularization, before a more 'big bang' break forward, from a reading of the mail from Niall.
We don't need a Boost-wide agreement to proceed. To move a file from module A to module B, we only need agreement from A and B's maintainers and lack of objections from the Boost community. This is easier to achieve that Boost-wide agreement, although in some cases B's maintainer may not be thrilled to accept responsibility for something he didn't write or design but will need to maintain. The problem with Utility is that it doesn't have a maintainer.
