The main problem I see with this syntax is that d + months(MONTHS) + DAYS; is not equivalent to d + DAYS + months(MONTHS); and I sometimes this might lead to the error prone code. This is why I prefer to use add_month function.
True. And this fact has been one factor in keeping this function out of the library before. Still, if it is well documented I'm starting to think the risk might be worth it since 'month' becomes a first class object that can be used in interfaces and as a data member in classes.
I'm currently using my home grown date classes. I will switch to the Date-Time, once these changes will be available in the boost release.
You are aware that this won't be for a couple months (at least), right? Jeff
