In order to have the best of both worlds, what do you think about start accepting libraries that are portable on C++0x compilers? This could be released as a separated package, that will, of course, depend on the current Boost package.
I think we'd have to see what the library does, and why it requires C++0x to do it before deciding. There's not much point in considering this until it's likely that such a library will be accepted. But if one is accepted, then it doesn't necessarily have to be distributed separately since we already have libraries with different requirements in boost.
I understand your concern. I wanted just know if this was possible or not. Thanks, Vicente
