It's silly to ignore MSVC until it's released as GA / RTM / RTW / whatever.

No, it's not,

Why?

in the same sense that any question/problem arising from somebody using a Boost RC in production would be met by: "Install Release first."

If you want to reason by analogy, don't forget to include why you believe the two cases are equivalent.

Whether a Boost Release could/should be coordinated with a VC Release is a totally other question (Peter seems to raise that), though (I think it should).

IMO if you started preparing in December (after the preview release) probably no adjustments / coordination would've been needed. -- Olaf
