Hi all,

In the date_time library there is the libs\date_time\xmldoc\license.xml covering the date_time library. It states that the copyright notice of the date_time library has to "appear in supporting documentation". Does this includes manuals for commercial binaries? I m'wondering because IMHO this wouldn't comply with point 4 of the boost license requirments as written at

www.boost.org/more/license_info.html#requirements

OTOH I'm neither a lawyer nor a native english speaker so I'm sure I misinterpret something. Can anyone shed some light on this?

Wow...that's messed up. Date-time licensing was converted to the Boost license way back -- apparently we somehow overlooked a critical file. Oddly enough, the file that contains this has the Boost license. In any case, please treat that license statement as obsolete. Jeff
