[1.36] release blurb?

Hi, I wonder whether we already have some place to begin adding content to the 1.36 release notes--you know, listing the new libraries and significant updates. Thank you, Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo

Thank you! Is there any site I can see the compiled result? Thought beta.boost.org was it, but it's showing the 1.35 entry instead. Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo

The rss feeds have to be rebuilt and checked in first. I'm having some problem with running python from bjam at the moment, but I'll do it once I've worked out why (unless someone beats me to it). Daniel

I found a typo: Near the bottom it says "In addition the following compilers should be well supported, but weren't part of out release criteria for 1.36". The word "out" should be "our". Joe Gottman

Hi, Just a copy/paste problem. Replace libs/exception/ by libs/units/ in A library for transporting of arbitrary data in exception objects, and transporting of exceptions between threads, from Emil Dotchevski. * [phrase library..[@/libs/exception/doc/boost_units.html Units]:] In addition, /doc/boost_LIB.html should be index.html (LIB=exception and units), isn't it? Respect to the compilers that should be well supported, why not list all the compilers that are used on the trunk (with a reference to the trunk test sumary, this will gives an idead of the level of support?

Fixed. Thanks.
In addition, /doc/boost_LIB.html should be index.html (LIB=exception and units), isn't it?
It doesn't have to be. All libraries should have an index.html file which is either the documentation, or redirects you to the documentation, as this gives a consistent entry point. But you can link directly to the actual documentation. Although linking to the forwarding file is probably better, as the link won't break if the documentation is moved.
Respect to the compilers that should be well supported, why not list all the compilers that are used on the trunk (with a reference to the trunk test sumary, this will gives an idead of the level of support?
Please ignore that list. I created the file by copying the 1.35 announcement and left the list in there for Beman to update when appropriate. It isn't an indication of what compilers 1.36 will support. I've removed it to prevent any confusion. Sorry if caused any. Daniel

That I am not. For Boost.Assign we need the following description: "list_of() (and its variants) now has overloaded comparison operators. This allows you to write test code such as BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL( my_container, list_of(2)(3)(4)(5) );." For Boost.PtrContainer we need the following: "Support for a few more containers, and addition of insert iterators. For details see <a href ="libs/ptr_container/doc/ptr_container.html#upgrading-from-boost-v-1-35">upgrading details</a>". Thanks -Thorsten

Hmmm, seems I don't have commit privs. Please add: Updated Libraries: Spirit * [phrase library..[@/libs/spirit/index.html Spirit]:] Integrated the "Classic" Spirit V1.8.x code base with Spirit V2, "The New Generation".

Hi, Boost.Math is prefixed with Boost. To be uniform this prefix should be removed, isn't it? Vicente
