The original post mentioned something that it would support T <-> string.
I think Phil was arguing that there are uses for specific conversions like T <-> string but he didn't see the purpose of generic conversions as this library offers.
Do i correctly understand that there will be 3 Boost libraries dealing with string conversion (Boost.Convert, Coerce, lexical_cast).
Convert was withdrawn. Coerce is a speedy-runtime slower-compiling Spirit-based solution, and lexical_cast uses std::iostream.
