Boost has a reason to continue and exist. But Boost is also a committee - albeit a better designed one. It has to evolve as well. I think it can evolve if we continue to work on the stuff we've been successful at while at the same time experimenting with new ideas.

+1.

I'm really interested in having all the C++2x prototypes in Boost. Looks like everyone would benefit from that. Is that a reasonable idea?

Boost now consists of >150 libraries, a number of them barely maintained. Who do you propose would maintain those additional projects ? I think before we can even think of an endeavour of that scale, we should fix the scalability issues we already have. Stefan -- ...ich hab' noch einen Koffer in Berlin...
