I hope to propose Boost.Compute for review in the next few months

Not to be the one that's the one that has to drag out the naggy old discussion every time this happens, but pet peeve of mine...
What ever happened to avoiding the use of "Boost.Something" names for proposed libraries and libraries that have not successfully reviewed yet?

In my eyes, not being very explicit about library naming results in a lot of confusion between the pre-review state of a library and its life after the review cycle, whether it's accepted or not.
(yes, there's a small note at the bottom of the documentation)
+1 Libraries that have not been accepted into Boost may not be labeled Boost.Name without qualification. They are to have a prominent disclaimer at the top of the documentation stating that they have not been accepted, too. There was discussion, once, of a special logo to use for such libraries, but I don't recall if that was ever finalized. I also don't recall whether the above was captured on the web site. Perhaps someone else had time to check that. ___ Rob (Sent from my portable computation engine)
