Hi,

I was wondering if the max_cardinality_matching functions is defined for *
directed* graphs as suggested by the documentation example [0]? I am 
asking, because the linked boost reference [1] describes the matching only 
for *undirected* graphs.

I am trying to get the "driver nodes" of a network as described by [2]. The 
authors showed, that the amount of "driver nodes needed to maintain full 
control of the network is determined by the ‘maximum matching’ in the 
network". May be even anyone has seen an implementation of this approach 
somewhere?
