In fact, I believe Boost.Build would be the obvious first choice to decouple fully from the rest of Boost, and release separately, but that's not my call to make.
Like this?

Yes, like this. But I think for this really to work efficiently it needs to be taken out of regular Boost releases, as otherwise people will continue using the latter. (And notably, packagers who build binary packages (for example for all the various Linux distributions) will continue building boost-build packages out of Boost releases, rather than the stand-alone Boost.Build releases, which may well lead to confusion and even discrepancies. (just think about tracking version numbers for compatibility...) Stefan -- ...ich hab' noch einen Koffer in Berlin...
