A major release of MSVC only happens every few years. Most of the userbase won't touch a new major MSVC release for a year in any case. Me personally, I'm very relaxed about supporting new major MSVC releases immediately, everybody can afford to wait until three months or so following a MSVC major release.
Personally I run preview versions of MSVC and it'd be nice if it 'just worked' with Boost. There's no need to wait until a stable release to work on compatibility either. On the contrary, both Boost and MSVC might benefit from earlier work on 'integration'. That said, I think MSVC is in better shape too then it was during the VC6 era so it might be less of an issue. -- Olaf
