If this is the case, then the main change I would suggest is that Boost needs to be easier to work with. Currently, the modular thing works kinda OK but it's a giant PITA to fork.
It is a giant PITA, partly because it is not modular. The git migration was a migration to 100 fractured git repos, not modularized git repos. If you want to modularize, then decide that that is a goal for Boost and I will help. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel/245078 I think at least one of the reasons my efforts did not get support from the right people is that modularization is not currently a goal for Boost. Some people in Boost think that modularization is already done. It is not. Thanks, Steve.
