Is anyone planning to start running tests on these compilers? If not we will have effectively dropped support for them for 1.34. Since I am opposed to dropping support without giving one release worth of warning, I am prepared to start running the tests if necessary. I'd like to have the remove_xxx function hacks put in if possible, *before* support gets dropped. Maybe, to cover people that have to target oddball embedded processors running WinCE and can't pay to have G++ customized, we ought to get the vc6-supporting parts of Boost running as well as possible before we drop support. That would imply one more release cycle to take advantage of remove_xxx working before that happens. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com

We are planning to resume testing these as soon as we sort out the Python/UTF-8 issues on Mac OS X that brought down the reports on Thursday (MSVC 6 explicit markup notes being the culprit).

We won't.

Same here. -- Aleksey Gurtovoy MetaCommunications Engineering
