Have you discussed the possibility for the two (Boost.Build and CMake) to coexist...
David Sankel made it pretty clear that in the "final solution", CMake will be mandatory and Boost.Build will be optional. Unless I misunderstood (David, feel free to correct me).
I don't remember anyone making that statement.
Hmmm - I do remember getting that impression though it may not have been explicitly stated. My reaction was to point out that we didn't have to address this issue until we actually had a real CMake alternative for Boost. I think this got us over the hump to where could find some common ground on something that would move us forward. Of course I don't remember every word and detail now. But I believe that my original summary captures the essential sense of the mercifully short and in my view productive meeting. Robert Ramey.
