Release 1.31.0 available
Release 1.31.0 is available. See the www.boost.org home page for latest news about what's in the release. Or go right to http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=7586 to download. The web site is already getting hit pretty hard, but it looks like the site update went OK. Let me know if there are any problems. Thanks to everyone who helped with this release. The folks that run the regression tests and look at the release candidates get a special pat on the back. --Beman
Is there a reason that every file in the tar files have execute permission set? -- Jeremy Maitin-Shepard

The tar files are created on a Windows system like this: set cvs preferences to export with UNIX-style line ends cvs -z9 export -r Version_1_31_0 boost tar cfz boost_1_31_0.tar.gz boost_1_31_0 Suggestions for improvement welcome. Perhaps the tar could be run under bash, which allows more twiddling of permissions, IIRC. --Beman
The easiest method, I would think, would be to checkout the repository and create the tar file on a system which supports files with execute permission, since it would be tedious to try to specify the permissions on the tar command-line, and certain files, such as build.sh, should have execute permission. Perhaps a Sourceforge system could be used. -- Jeremy Maitin-Shepard

I noticed a couple of errors on the front page (www.boost.org). 1) "Nighly CVS". I assume this should be "Nightly". 2) There isn't a direct link to download the boost files anymore. I had to go through about four pages to get to the downloads. I know we can't change the .zip files, but could someone please change the actual boost website to fix these? Joe Gottman Joe Gottman
