Hello,
in a recent post, Dave listed a few things that he thinks are wrong with Boost development, at present, quoting:
I know I'm not the first person to notice that, as Boost has grown, it has become harder and harder to manage, Subversion is getting slow, our issue tracker is full to overflowing, and the release process is a full-time job.
It seems to be important, right now, to discuss whether this problems are real, and what problems are most important.
I have to admit that I'm not very fond of this attitude that focuses on tools, rather than process. I don't think a switch from Subversion to Git in itself will solve any problem.
I think that before discussing solutions, we need to figure the set of the problems. That's why I'm trying to elicit specific list of problems, in this thread and have a discussion about solution after -- whether independently or whenever any solutions are proposed. - Volodya
