BTW, I'm tempted to rename Egg to Boost.Functor.
I'd suggest avoiding Functor as a name. Functor has specific meaning in the functional programming community, which is not consistent with what Egg delivers.
What about Boost.Functional (already taken?) or Boost.FunctionAdapters, or, my favourite, Boost.FunctionObjectsOnSteroid :). Or just keep Egg, is simple and there is precendent for non descriptive names in boost.
Personally I like the name Egg, it's short enough for a namespace name, and easy to remember. Boost.FunctionObjectsOnSteroid does have a certain something as well :) Cheers Dan __________________________________________________________ Sent from Yahoo!

OK, it seems right to keep "egg". :-) I will post officially [interest] with roughly boostified Egg in a few weeks. Regards, -- Shunsuke Sogame
