While I appreciate the work on Hana, I believe a pure meta-programming (pure functional) C++11/C++14 library would make things easier.
What about enriching the Eric's library on a GSoC project? Sufficiently able students are extremely tough to find. Also, Eric's Meta is very new, is C++ 14 only, and I assume would internal compiler error any MSVC :)
That said if you're willing to mentor such a GSoC Vicente ...
I would accept mentoring it if the library is restricted to only C++14 compilers (with C++14 libraries). IMHO, new Boost libraries (and in particular GSoC projects) should jump on the last train.
Then it's especially hard to find sufficiently able students! Also, I thought you wanted to spend this summer working on Thread v5 instead of mentoring GSoC? Niall --- Boost C++ Libraries Google Summer of Code 2015 admin https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/SoC2015
