If we go forward with this, I'll try to get quotes from one or two other C++ luminaries to go in the "What do others say about Boost" sub-section.
From http://www.research.att.com/~bs/abstraction.pdf: "The obvious solution for most programmers is to use a library that provides an elegant and efficient platform independent to needed services. Examples are BOOST ..."
Ah! That's a good one. Thanks - I hadn't seen it before.
I'm sure the man would be prepared to give you a slightly punchier quote. On the other hand, quotes that people have made unprompted somehow feel more honest.
Yes, agreed. Thanks, --Beman
