Normally I would agree with this reply but not since I found WXWidgets. In fact I would love to see boost and WX Widgets merge together. WXWidgets is a crose platform GUI library like MFC and VCL and it is 12 years old. It runs on MAC, Linux, and Windows. Heck he is even working on a version for palm devices. check it out at www.wxwidgets.org and think of all the things that could be done if it was part of all the boost work.
You might want to search the archives for recent discussions on this list about GUI frameworks. wxWidgets was discussed in detail, and there was even talk about a collaboration between wxWidgets and Boost developers. However, the conensus was that wxWidgets was decidedly unmodern C++.
My understanding is that wxWidgets is currently getting a major re-write to make use of modern C++ style of coding. I know lots of discussion of the STL is being generated on its mail lists.
So I think some collaboration, if not lots, would be in order...
Me too. I just meant that the current implementation was not 'modern'
