The precedent for handling this is very well understood. I've only been active in the Boost community for 10-years, but let me help correct some of your assertions. It is not uncommon for libraries to need a restructure of directories and namespaces *after* approval.
The goal is that authors present a very high quality library without having to completely boostify it before finding out if it will be accepted.
+1 Directory structures and namespaces are not a requirement of a review.
CI testing is also not a requirement for a review to be successful. You are free to voice your opinion and to write documents that promote it; however, you cannot force your requirements onto the process.
+1 *All* libraries need some work before being 'Boost release-ready', some more than others. And we have had mini-reviews in the past. Let's not make life for authors more difficult than it need be. Paul --- Paul A. Bristow Prizet Farmhouse Kendal UK LA8 8AB +44 (0) 1539 561830
