Hmmmm - could you elaborate on this please? I'm aware I could track it down on my own, but since you've already done this, it seems much easier just to ask you.
I believe, the author is allowed to distribute his work under multiple licenses. We (Boost) can only require that the version of the library that is proposed for Boost is licensed under the BSL. In the few files that I checked there is the BSL license quoted in the header comment (although a few files were missing any license), so it looks like the Boost.Outcome library is licensed under the BSL.
If the Boost.Outcome repository sources are going to be automatically "generated" from standalone-Outcome via scripts (currently a Travis job?) and standalone-Outcome has all code dual licensed under Apache and BSL, what would that mean for contributions to the Boost.Outcome library? i.e. Would they have to be contributed to standalone-Outcome first, under dual license?
