They sort the libraries by that field. The clue is the 'sort by' at the left, but I think at the moment it looks more like an option than a label, so it isn't very clear. If you have any ideas about how to make it clearer I'd be interested. Moving it out of the box is a possibility. Daniel

Perhaps those 'labels' could work as filter instead of sorting criteria? -- Best Regards, Sergey mailto:flex_ferrum@artberg.ru

You are right, the field are Standard: with values Proposed | TR1 | none Build & Link: with values Header only | Automatic linking So either we sory by Standard and Build & Link or we select on of the values. Vicente

When I said 'label' I was just referring to 'sort by', which should probably be clearly separated from the links. Anyway, some of the links could be used as a filter. I'll look into it. Daniel

When I sort by STD Proposal, STD::TR1, Header Only Use or Automatic Linking I'll expect that the respective STD Proposal, STD::TR1, Header Only Use or Automatic Linking apears at the begining of the page and not at the end. What does the Key field mean? Vicente

I see that the single Proposed library is Thread, but from n2516 the thread library has been adopted. "The review committee, created by Motion 14 at the Kona meeting, approved, by a vote of 4 to 2, the inclusion of the threads API proposal as revised by the editing committee ( N2497) for inclusion of the working paper. " Which are the other Boost libraries that are proposed but not for accepted yet? Filesystem? Optional? Range? Any? numeric_cast? Lexical Conversion, ShMem (Interprocess), Signals? Vicente
