Boost.SIMD only supports x86.

Are there plans for ARM NEON and/or MIPS SIMD?

Other platforms are supported in the proprietary version of the library. https://developer.numscale.com/bsimd/documentation/v1.17.3.0/

Will those be eventually included in Boost.SIMD, if it's accepted into Boost? This is an important point, IMO, and it should be clarified before review. If there are no plans to improve Boost.SIMD in order not to harm the commercial version then that makes Boost.SIMD significantly less attractive. Personally, I would vote for rejection in this case.
