I don't think that this has been the practice in the past. If it is now the case, I think that the information on updating the web page should specifically reflect that.

Meaning 1.35? Good question... Either keep them to yourself until we have a 1.35 branch. Or create a 1.35 branch. IMO.

I think that we'll probably need a better solution than that. Given the time between releases, it would be better to have a location where library updates can be marked. I'm particularly concerned about the time after a release and before the next branch for release. Another option is to have a file separate from the home page but is also maintained in CVS HEAD, which contains all of the changes since the last release (or release branch) that are currently in CVS HEAD.

This problem will be moot for 1.35 anyway since the website will be independent.

The web site and CVS are independent right now: what is visible at boost.org does not always match what is in CVS. How will the planned changes alleviate this issue?

Thanks for the reply. ron
