Here's a wacky thought: can we turn boost-sandbox into CBAN (the Comprehensive Boost Archive Network), and cherry-pick the best libraries from CBAN for inclusion in boost? If anybody could make something like this fly, it's boost. We'd need to look closely at the CPAN model to find out why it's successful.
I'd really like to see something like that. I think it would also help if Boost moderators (and maybe those with accepted libraries) could nominate or comment on libraries, separately from those comments from the general public. A simple note like "this is an important problem space where we need a good solution," or "code quality seems excellent; the documentation needs work before review" from someone perceived to have influence in the review process might serve as useful encouragement. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
