Boost conventions and unnamed namespaces

I have noticed that the Boost inspect program tries [*] to find unnamed namespaces and marks them as violations. [*] It does not find the one in its own sources, ironically. Does it mean that Boost conventions discourage the use of unnamed namespaces? Regards, -- Maciej Sobczak * www.msobczak.com * www.inspirel.com
