The migration to svn & Spirit's release plans

Hallo, I'd like to know what are the current plans for the migration of the Boost CVS repository to Subversion. I'm asking because I volunteered to handle the release of Spirit 1.6.4 & 1.8.5, which basically means tagging the appropriate subset of Boost 1.34.0 . As I'm still not as familiar with Subversion as I am with CVS, I'd rather do it in the current repository. On the other hand this isn't going to happen before some time next week and I do not want to alter anybody's plans. Thank you, Nicola Musatti

Believe it or not. Setting a timeframe won't solve the problems that causes slippage.
Also, is there a list of regressions / bugs that are to be addressed in this ?
Are you volunteering to compile that list from the messages on devel? Thomas -- Thomas Witt witt@acm.org

I'm afraid I don't understand the issues well enough. I have read about some issues with iostreams (though I'm neither sure about what that means in detail, nor what risk fixing that may involve), and noticed some mention of one or two other (minor) things that need fixing. All I'm saying is that it may be best to specify the bugs that need fixes, and refuse *all* other checkins, or else things will get out of hand again. (I for one have checked in a small backport this morning to boost.python, assuming the 1_34 branch was now being prepared for 1.35, as discussed by Doug et al. some weeks ago.)
