Once again, the latest offering is at <http://boost-consulting.com/vault/>, inside Template Metaprogramming. The ability to write constants like big_integral<positive_sign,1,0,4,8,5,7,6> has returned. In addition, you can also write a constant like unsigned_big_integral<1,0,4,8,5,7,6>, which is equivalent to the above. The two missing pieces wrt full functionality are division and human-readable output. The latter is easier to tackle but will most likely require a corresponding runtime big-integer class. Is anybody (e.g. Christopher Diggins) still working on one? If so, I might use it as a value_type. In a future version I'll probably get rid of positive_sign and negative_sign and just have the user specify '+' or '-'.
