That's news to me! Itwasn't the case when I setup my projects few months ago, thanks for pointing it.
Although that gives a similar result to the traditional vault, it has one significant drawback. It introduces a management layer for Boost for each proposed library/file. This is worse than both the old vault (self-registration) and sandbox (one-time moderator registration).
I don't understand what "management layer" you are talking about exactly? I was thinking like just a few scripts that regularly pull repositories changes would make the "management" automatic. Joël Lamotte
