Under the pretext of my argument, I think it would be a good idea if Boost had as part of its offical web-site, an area where commercial enterprise can list their use of Boost in their projects.
It's blatant advertising I know,
I'd say it's blatant advertising for Boost,
In that case I now have no reservations about my initial proposal - Boost advertising is good advertising :-)
and somewhat subliminal advertising for those using Boost, provided they think that the use of Boost will reflect well upon their reputation.

Not at all. http://www.boost.org/libs/python/doc/projects.html, for example.
Not having ventured down the Python path with Boost, I was previously unaware of the "projects" page. Boost indeed is many things, and that's comforting, it shifts my own perceptions a little (for the better) - thanks Dave. Cheers, -- Manfred Doudar MetOcean Engineers www.metoceanengineers.com
