Build support for VS 2019 RC (msvc-14.2) is on develop in boost build. Do we want to merge that to master for the release?
Taking all release dates into account, I think that the right thing to do would be to release Beta 2 with 2019 support, so that people can give it a go. There's still time before the 1.70 release for another beta, but this creates extra work for the release manager, so it would be his call.
The result of https://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/summary.html for 14.2RC look good and green enough to me to make it very useful to merge to master before the release (with sympathy for the long-suffering release manager).
If people think that the VS 2019 is ready to release, then I have no objection to putting it into the 1.70 release. However, I'd appreciate it if people kept an eye on the CI results and the test runners between now and the 3rd. -- Marshall
