* What kinds of applications are we intending to serve?
Something that I would really like to see, is the cooperation between the
serialization library and the dynamic_any type (developed by Alexander
Nasonov, not yet into Boost). More specifically, it must be possible to
serialize and
code fragments such as:
line 95-96 of archive.cpp seem unacceptable to me:
// note breaking a rule here - is this a problem on some platform
is.read(const_castchar *(s.data()), size);
Although is non standard I believe that the above code will work on all
known platforms.

Hi,
The boost::any type is currently limited because it's impossible to be used
as the key type in a map or a hash_map for example. It is obvious that
adding comparison operators to boost::any is unnacceptable, because that
would require all value types to also have these operators defined.
