You don't think we'll draw new users because Scott Meyers has recommended that people familiarize themselves with Boost?
Yes and no!
People get _aware_ of Boost this way.
But they start useing it because it helps them to solve a problem!
I started using boost regex a few years ago after carefully comparing a number of C++ regex packages. It turns out I picked a pretty good one ;-) But it would have been a more obvious choice if there had been quotes from Meyers and Stroustrup on the homepage (I'm not sure I knew who Herb Sutter was back then).
