The history lesson is nice, and may be academic. Currently, Boost is a collection of useful C++ libraries which need maintenance, and we do not have control over which new libraries are proposed. The collection comes with implied support over time. With Boost's large number of mostly-silent users, the only relevant "mission" is to maximize the value delivered to those users. How we accomplish that is worth its own discussion. Thanks
