Hi, Sorry this is a bit late, I would normally have mostly sorted out the release notes by now. You can add your changes to the release notes by editting the file in the beta repository at: http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/website/public_html/beta/feed/history/boost_1... I've added a few libraries already, but feel free to change them if I've got them wrong. Most of the links don't work because the beta documentation will only be uploaded after the beta release. If you want to update the site (if you don't, I'll do it so this is optional), you need to check out the whole site and a quickbook executable in your path. Then run the script at 'site-tools/update.py' using python 2.5 to 2.7. Check in the changes to the site (including rss feeds and changes to 'site-tools/state/feed-pages.txt'). If anything goes wrong, just check in your changes to the quickbook file and let me know - the site update script has only been used by me, so I'm not sure how well it'll work for others. If it works well, the idea is to put the beta notes on the live site for future release - I'll make their status a bit clearer before doing that. Alternatively, you can just email me your changes and I'll make them. thanks, Daniel

Hi, here they are the Boost.Chrono updates * [phrase library..[@/libs/chrono/index.html Chrono]:] * [@http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5979 #5979] Added chrono rounding utilities as defined by Howard Hinnant [@http://home.roadrunner.com/~hinnant/duration_io/chrono_util.html here]. * [@http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5978 #5978] Add BOOST_CHRONO_HAS_PROCESS_CLOCKS to know if process clocks are available. * [@http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5998 #5998] Make possible to disable hybrid error handling. * [@http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5906 #5906] Take in account the constexpr as defined in the standard. * [@http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5907 #5907] Take in account noexcept for compilers supporting it. * Fixed some bugs. * See the [@/libs/chrono/appendices/history.html History] for more details. Thanks for updating the file, Vicente

I forgot to mention that the script isn't updating the rss feeds until the final release. This is so that it can be used on the live site in the future. A small number of people are following the beta history feed so I assume that it is of interest to someone. I created a new feed for following the release notes changes: http://beta.boost.org/feed/dev.rss Also, since all items now have a link element and guid element changes will appear as updates rather than new items. I might change it so that there's a new item created for each update. Although if you want to track changes to the release notes, using subversion is the best method.

Hi, here they are the Boost.LexicalCast updates * [phrase library..[@/libs/conversion/lexical_cast.htm Lexical cast]:] * Added code to work with Inf and NaN values on any platform ([@https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5689 #5689]. * New Quickbook documentation ([@https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5723 #5723]). * Better performance and less memory usage for many combinations of Source and Target types * Better performance for C locale Thanks for updating the file. Best regards, Antony Polukhin

Hi Daniel, Hopefully I'm still on time. Below the release notes on Boost.Geometry On 23-10-2011 22:54, Daniel James wrote:

Bugfixes: * Robustness issue, in some circumstances the union failed to output. Fixed. * Robustness issue, in some circumstances the calculated intersection point was outside the segment. Fixed. * Concept issue, cartesian intersect didn't understand segments other than the provided one. Fixed. * Sometimes self-intersections in linestrings were missed. Fixed. * The fusion coordinate system was not registered correctly. Fixed. Solved tickets: * https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5726 (Segment intersection algorithm still assumes 'first', 'second' members) * https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5744 (mistake fusion adapt example) * https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5748 (need include <boost/foreach.hpp>) * https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5954 (distance_pythagoras skips sqrt() step) Improvements on algorithms: * Checking self-intersections is now not done automatically, this can blast performance. * Besides that, checking self-intersections is made faster. * Intersections now avoid outputting duplicate points. So they output the minimal set. Additional algorithms: * covered_by: within is defined as "within, not on boundary". covered_by is "within or on boundary" Additional functionality: * within: strategies can now be specified for within<point, box> and within<box, box> * convert: a much broader range of conversions is supported * assign: idem, (currently partly) synonym for convert (but reversed arguments) Additional coordinate types: * Basic support for Boost.Rational Thanks, Barend
