is "soon" a matter of days, weeks, months or years?
We had a good progress recently. If things go well (more people join the effort) - weeks. Less optimistic - months.
Why does it take weeks or months to release a fix that has BEEN DEVELOPED YEARS AGO? Honestly, this snails pace is maddening. Yes, there's always an excuse, but we're talking a simple bug fix here that has been prevented from appearing in a release FOR FIVE YEARS. "Fixing" to a development branch is not fixing. It's not fixed until it shows up in a released version of boost. Five years is long enough to wait, any reasonable observer would conclude at this point that there is noone seriously working to fix anything in this library and they'll just use google test which releases fixes promptly. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" free book http://tinyurl.com/d3d-pipeline The Computer Graphics Museum http://computergraphicsmuseum.org The Terminals Wiki http://terminals.classiccmp.org Legalize Adulthood!
