2. If new libraries have c++11 requirement, what is the reason for anyone restricted to c++03 to upgrade to new version of boost?
Bugfixes (and new features, to a more limited extent) don't get backported. If someone reports a bug in older Boost, generally the first response is "use the latest Boost". Which is not an unreasonable response, but it illustrates the problem with assuming that those using C++03 can just stick with an older version forever.
