Using boost CVS (boost-04-09-05-2200), I am using the serialization library (which generally is a real life-saver, btw. Thanks Robert!!!) Anyway, I have been using the XML output for a few days, and I just had a good look at it, and realized it is not well-formed.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?> <!DOCTYPE boost_serialization> <boost_serialization signature="serialization::archive" version="3"> <m_db class_id="0" tracking_level="0"> ...

The boost_serialization STag above is never matched by a ETag, nor is it an EmptyElem apparently. Is this intended? Or did I miss something while writing the serialization code? I.e. am I supposed to close it myself, or something? It is a minor thing, I know, but it _will_ make any standards-conforming XML-viewer reject it. Other than that, as I mentioned above, Boost.Serialization has saved my life recently (rewriting to use it was by far easier than debugging the I/O routines I was using, and they were somehow _seriously_ messed up). Great work! -- /Brian Riis
