John Maddock's statistic's library, which is also in the "review queue" presumably will have some overlap with the "accumulators" statistics library. Do you see this as an issue that would need to be addressed. How familiar are you with John's library? I wonder what the result would be if two of boost's best statisticians/mathmaticians got together on a design (one can only dream).
There's no overlap between the two: Eric's library concentrate on data-processing, Paul and mine's on the tests you do once you have the results from that processing. The obvious thing at some point in the future is a "bridge" between the two that let's you do the tests straight from the raw data. In other words these two libraries are each building blocks upon which higher level libraries can be built. John.
