[unordered] Could you use a hand?

Daniel, I saw that several changes have been made to the general unordered map/set in the andbox in the last couple of weeks. I'm psyched to see new progress. I was wondering if you could use some help with anything, docs, tests, etc... I'd be happy to help out wherever I can. I'd really like to see it accepted into boost in the near future.

Thanks for the offer. The library's almost ready for review so there's not much you can do to speed that up. But, if you still want to help, I think there's plenty of room for improvement in the documentation. I'm going to do some work on it this week, mostly cleaning up what's already there. But it would be helpful if you could proof read and review it, suggesting, or writing, anything that should be added or improved. If you're willing to do this, it would probably be best to wait a few days for me to finish what I'm currently up to - although I'm not going to add much new documentation. Daniel

I'm really glad to see this pick up again. Let me know when the docs are ready to be reviewed, I'd be happy to go through them. Also, I saw in a recent post your mentioning how long it takes for a livrary to be reviewed by boost. At boostcon, the unordered containers came up in a couple of discussion I was in, and there seemed to be an interest in trying to fast track the review of this library. After all, we already know that the community wants it, and there is no need to review the interface. So, we really only need to review the implementation, documentation, and tests. Here is hoping we can make that happen sooner than expected. Jared
