The code is in the Boost Vault called Pimpl.zip

I haven't looked at your library, but one thing you need to do to get buy-in for this library is provide a comparison with the pimpl_ptr library that was proposed and rejected. My perception of the primary reason the library failed is that, despite being a basically sound library, it didn't work in the ways people wanted it to. It would be useful if you could summarize the vital details of your library, along with a comparison to the previous proposal, and other similar libraries, in your announcement message.
