I worry a little about requiring library authors not to regress on compiler combinations they don't test with. For example, who is going to address the one lexical_cast failure that's plaguing the 1.30.2 release? It's only on intel-7.1 with STLPort and looks for all the world like a config problem. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
