Looks like my last email get lost at some point. Anyway, after the initial review of Rene Riviera Boost.Predef, my decision was to Conditionnally Accept Boost.Predef under the request that the comments raised during the review period were addressed. Since then, Rene worked hard on actually making those changes so I now feel confident to announce that Boost.Predef is ACCEPTED as a Boost library.

I counted 7 votes, none of which were NO. All authors votes YES, some made additional requests. Overall, the verdict of the community was clear: Oliver Kowalke's Coroutines library is ACCEPTED The discussion was lively and it touched on several points. Design ------ The Coroutines library offers enormous potential for programming regimes such as communications software and embedded systems design. Oliver selected a sensible granularity for his design. This granularity allows for fine-tuning the implementations of cooperative scheduling mechanisms while avoiding the prohibitively heavy weight of preemptive scheduling that is found in POSIX and often in implementations of the C++11 thread support library. In particular, the separation of Coroutines from Context allows for porting to other systems with minimal effort and maximum reliability and code re-use.

In odeint we have implemented the most common algorithms in a modern, generic way which provides several advantages over existing implementations. The main focus of odeint is to separate algorithms from the underlying basic computation unit. This allows for example to easily use the power of modern GPUs via CUDA or OpenCL to speed up computational heavy simulations. Features: - provides most of the standard algorithms, including step size control, dense ouput and extrapolation routines - symplectic routines for Hamiltonian systems - implicit routines based on boost::ublas (MTL4 in progress) - high level integrate functions - interchangeable computation backend with ex</pre> Steven Watanabe 2012-09-20T16:09:14 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.announce/369 <pre> Lorenzo Caminiti's Boost.Contract Library is hereby accepted into Boost. I will be brief but that should in no way be construed as a lack of enthusiasm. Reviewing the review commentary was a genuine pleasure. Anyone interested in this domain could learn a lot by going through the threads the way I did. There were five "yes" votes, one of which was very late (but I'm counting it), and one of which was conditional, and one "no" vote. I am accepting the library unconditionally because of Lorenzo's demonstrated responsiveness to issues. He gave thoughtful responses to the review comments and entered every issue raised that remained open into a bug database (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/contractpp/report/3).

I really hope to see your vote and your participation in the discussions on the Boost mailing lists! ----------------------------------------------------- About the library: Boost.Coroutine provides templates for generalized subroutines (coroutines) which allow multiple entry points for suspending and resuming execution at certain locations. It preserves local state/data and allows re-entering subroutines more than once (useful if state must be kept across function calls). Coroutines can be viewed as a language-level construct providing a special kind of control flow.

SUMMARY The library was reviewed from July 18 to August 3, 2012. There were 11 votes to accept the library and 2 votes to accept the library under the condition of some modifications (at the end, these 2 votes were essentially considered as "no" because there was no agreement on implementing all the required modifications). It was noted how the library offers non-intrusive and powerful programming techniques that can be used in place of usual Object Oriented (pure) virtual function interfaces (and with support for some from of virtual "template" functions). The library can also be seen as a generalization of existing Boost libraries like Any, Function, and AnyIterator. The library is accepted "as is", however most reviewers suggested to: 1) Dramatically ease the learning curve of the documentation by providing a motivation section, step-by-step tutorial(s) to introduce the basic features of the library, advanced topics sec</pre> Lorenzo Caminiti 2012-08-21T02:01:44 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.announce/364 <pre>BoostPro is happy to announce that we now have free 32-bit and 64-bit installers for Windows available for download: http://www.boostpro.com/download This version libraries and/or DLLs for the following compilers: Visual C++ 7.1 (Visual Studio 2003) [32-bit only] Visual C++ 8.0 (Visual Studio 2005 SP1) Visual C++ 9.0 (Visual Studio 2008 SP1) Visual C++ 10.0 (Visual Studio 2010 SP1) </pre> John Wiegley 2012-08-24T05:04:59 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.announce/363 <pre> The review period for Lorenzo Caminiti's Boost.Contract library runs from today through August 31st.

Details -------- Most reviewers noted that this was a sufficiently good first step toward extended precision arithmetic for inclusion into Boost. I think John and Chris will agree that there remains quite a bit of work left to do, but as one reviewer noted, John has an excellent track record regarding Boost development and Chris has been extremely dedicated during the pre-review development, review process, and post-review development, so I think this bodes well for the library's future.
