[parameter][1.33.1] last few failures

Dave, Daniel, are the last few failures (http://engineering.meta-comm.com/boost-regression/CVS-RC_1_33_0/developer/is...) of the parameter lib fixable or should they be marked up? Thanks, John.

They might be fixable (they probably are), but regardless, I don't see why they should need to be marked up: it's a new test, so it doesn't represent a regression. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com

Understood, I'd just like to see 1.33.1 go all green so it can be released :-) If that compiler is a release requirement, then shouldn't all tests either pass or be marked up? (and no that's not a rhetorical question!). Thanks, John.

Yes. We need zero *failures*, not just zero regressions, to roll the next release. Doug

Should be done now. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com

How about the last gcc-2.95.3 failure: http://engineering.meta-comm.com/boost-regression/CVS-RC_1_33_0/developer/ou... Thanks, John.

Ach, somehow failed to copy the fix to the branch. Done now. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
