For many years I've had the desire of having a different, new, organization that is solely responsible for the Boost C++ Libraries. Neither of which the Boost Foundation or C++ Alliance are as they have larger / different mandates. Such an org would be the ideal responsible party in this situation.
Great idea! I would like to see this as well, and you are correct that The C++ Alliance has a broader scope. It is within C++ Alliance mission to sponsor the creation of such an organization so if you are willing and there are other volunteers (a minimum of three people are required, to fill the positions of President, Treasurer, and Secretary) then I would be happy to direct the resources of our non-profit to launch this new charity. As I already have a full plate I can't be involved in the management of this new non-profit but I am happy to help get it started and of course continue contributing to Boost. So there is no confusion: The C++ Alliance is offering a grant of $50,000 to start a new U.S.-based 501(c)(3) non-profit whose charter is narrowly focused on supporting the Boost C++ Libraries. Thanks
