July 19-July 20: Prepare and test the release candidate archives. Fix any found issues and repeat.

As you can see from the first milestone's description, at this point I'd like to collect everybody's plans for the release (for those developers who do plan to do something, of cource), with approximate dates, so that we have a better understanding of how everything is going to fall together. Please post these plans to the list with "[1.32 Plan]" prefix in the subject.
As usual, any other comments/suggestions are more than welcome.
I have few outstanding issues to fix, but they are mostly related to the documentation. I think, I can manage it. As it seems, that the Range library will not make it to this release, I will use the internal versions of facilities that are currently in the string_algo lib. So my todo list is as follows: 1) Finish the documentation - Add functions list - Add exception specifications - Cleanup 2) Fix examples 3) If there will be time, improve find_iterator 4) Fix possible regressions. Questions: - I have posted some requestes/bugs on the boost-doc list. What is the status of this. Will they be fixed before release? - According to metacom's tables regex is failing on comeau a so string_algo regex test. Is this a setup or regex problem? - There is an problem with Intel compiler, split tests are failing and I cannot figureout why. The message is very vague. Could somebody with an access to this platform, try to debug the cause of the problem? - In regards to the older compiler support. I cannot resonably support compilers, that I don't have an access to. Therefor if somebody is interested to use string_algo library with one of such compilers, I will need an active help with porting. Regards, Pavol
