because of a missing "template" keyword (between :: and helper).

What is the proper channel for reporting things like this?

[Dave Abrahams]

Yes, we still have compilers with BOOST_NO_TEMPLATE_PARTIAL_SPECIALIZATION. Not every library has officially dropped support for vc6/7 yet.

[Brian Braatz] Humble request from the "Front Lines" :) Please continue supporting vc7. I am currently in the unenviable position of BACK PORTING code that uses boost from vc7.1 to vc7. The first thing to go was lambda. The funny thing is about 6 months ago I was thinking it seemed silly to keep things like boost.bind around. But now I am using that heavily instead of lambda. My situation is we have 1.7 million lines of code we are trying to upgrade. Unfortunately we have about 40-50 people who have had vc7 purchased for them by the project and we do not have the budget to upgrade compilers. Vc7 is, in my opinion probably (unfortunately) still a compiler many folks are stuck with.
