I realize that this message may have not passed the spam filters.

Can someone comment on the changes in Boost.Optional in 1.56.0 breaking existing code?

Hi Dean,

I don't know the specifics, but if you file a bug, at least it won't get lost.

Filed: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/10399

Thanks Eric.

It's now been almost a week and there's been no update on the issue. I think this is serious enough that I'm positive it couldn't just be me that's experiencing this regression.

Can someone with access to MSVC 2010 confirm whether this indeed is an issue, and whether it's actually a regression?

If I wanted to get a fix in for this, whom do I send the pull request to (community maintenance team) so it gets fixed for 1.57?

Just make a pull request against Boost Optional. Whoever is a Boost Optional maintainer will get the pull request. It is not up to you to have to determine, when making a pull request, who should get the request.
