Sorry to say the beta release of 1.64.0 is hereby going to be delayed for at least another week. The confusion of VS2017 version numbers and the communities inability to address this issue after the beta is to blame. To address the situation the beta release will be published when one of the two tasks below are completed: (A) Boost Config changes to use 1410 as the autolink version to match what the currently working generated libs are taggeg with. Or: (B) The community decides what version number we should be using and the appropriate PRs are filed and applied and tested for all the repos involved. Which means: 1. The community has until 12:00 CDT US March 18 to decide on what the vc version number and tag should be. 2. The community must post PRs for the places where we reference VS2017 version numbers to the new number. Those are at least: https://github.com/boostorg/config https://github.com/boostorg/build https://github.com/boostorg/boost https://github.com/boostorg/website People have until 17:00 CDT Monday March 20 to submit those PRs. 3. The community can test the resulting master snapshot when available at the latest 24:00 Monday March 20. 4. If all goes well we can have a beta release on Wednesday March 22 (ie one week late). -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail
