C++Now! is history, so it is high time to get the 1.50.0 beta out the door.
Branches/release is now closed for all changes except by permission from a release manager.
Request to merge https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/changeset/78501 which just takes care of a shadowing warning on gcc. Couple things: (a) I just went ahead and made this change on trunk a few days ago because I stumbled into this warning myself, searched track, and saw that it was already reported and had a patch (indirectly) attached; in retrospect, I apologize if I stepped on anyone's (Jeremy's?) toes, and so I ask: Is there a formal or informal protocol for applying relatively simple patches like this one? (b) Along the same lines, assuming permission is granted and given (a), should I be merging this to release, or should that fall to the library maintainer? Thanks, - Jeff
