I read this conversion and thought that it might be the proper place and time to ask this question (sorry, if it's not). Is there any chance that Boost becomes more modular in a way if I need just a few libs (or only one), I am not forced to get all of the libs in boost?

Hi, From your user perspective, how do you want this implemented? (just a question). With the changes I am proposing (sorry for self promotion, see https://github.com/raffienficiaud/boost-cmake), I can: * create a cmake build tree only for a subset of boost. Say you want to compile only library X that depends on other libraries Y and Z, and only X,Y and Z will be added to the cmake project. This is already in place. * create a stub from cmake that automatically checks out the required dependencies. This needs to be added, but should be easy to do. Is this second use case a good scenario for you? Raffi
