When 1.33 is released...
As soon a 1.33 is released can we up the version number to 1_33_1 or such like in CVS, as this will make switching between HEAD and gold a lot easier? Gordon.

I'm not sure I understand quite what you mean. We will have a Version_1_33_0 tag in CVS once we release 1.33, which you can use to get to 1.33. Doug
Here is my experience with the 1.32 branch: 1. 1.32 went gold - I download the tagged version and built it with the "install" option. This resulted in an include folder of "C:\Boost\include\boost-1_32" with corresponding lib files. 2. For the next couple of months I get the HEAD - when I build it, it also goes into "C:\Boost\include\boost-1_32" with corresponding lib names. Now I am capable of maintain separate folders, but it is very easy to get fooled about which version I am actually using. Now after the 1_33 release, if you instantly upped it to 1_33_1 (even if it never went gold) I would know that the largest version is always the HEAD. Thoughts? Gordon.

Yes, I know what you mean now. I think that's a good idea. Doug
