I believe however that some people were interested in doing a new C++11 version of MPL. I think the problem is that every year or so someone finds a new fancy way to do meta-programming with the latest C++ features, with noble goals of unifying MPL and Fusion, so most of these rewrites end up as experiments rather than stable libraries. I think Eric Niebler's meta library is good start for a modern MPL library, and it doesn't try to unify MPL and Fusion.

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. Vicente
