There has, however, been little interest in the library so far from Boost users/developers which surprises me. I don't know if that is because of the single-machine limitation and people don't see any value that MR can bring to multi-threaded programming?
People are maybe lacking perspective on the problem. One thing that can be beneficial is solving a real life problem with your library and show the payback.
2. Continue to develop the library in the sandbox to multi-machine implementation and work towards submitting that for formal review. Is there interest for this?
You mean over MPI or something ?
Looking at the download figures from the Vault, there has been a reasonable number of downloads; Of course there is no way to tell the number of people looking at the sandbox implementation. Perhaps the library has some silent interest? Please let me know your thoughts.
Well, Boost is sometimes a slow roll community + the potential summer break of possible users may means you jsut have to wait a few more. -- ___________________________________________ Joel Falcou - Assistant Professor PARALL Team - LRI - Universite Paris Sud XI Tel : (+33)1 69 15 66 35
