Hi all,
At C++Now this year I gave a talk on the status of Boost and presented this graph which illustrated the trend of Boost mailing list participation.

I'm interested to hear your opinions as to what happened over that time period to cause such a trend.
I've been wondering for a while if maybe people are moving to some other discussion forums such as Stack Overflow. Some queries for [c++]- and [boost]-tagged questions in SO yield these numbers: C++ Boost 2013 231284 7589 3.3% 2014 216447 7243 3.3% 2015 201461 6300 3,1% 2016 177118 5267 3.0% 2017 147769 4340 2.9% 2018 124093 3431 2.8% 2019 116588 2414 2.1% 2020 131680 2512 1.9% 2021 102111 2115 2.1% 2022 80383 1795 2.2% So, there's been a downward trend both for C++ and Boost, while the Boost/C++ ratio has sort of stabilized at 2.x%. Not that I know what to make of these figures. Joaquín M López Muñoz
