<snip>
What is the reason for Boost.Outcome requiring C++14? If it is the `constexpr` guarantees, could the `constexpr` be just dropped for non-C++14 compilers?
Of course, Boost has some macros that might help with this BOOST_CONSTEXPR_OR_CONST ... But I can't see any objection to requiring a C++14 compiler. I suspect Outcome will mainly or only be used for new projects, a good time to start using the most recent (and fewer bugged) compiler. Paul PS I haven't felt qualified to make a worthwhile review, but I would vote ACCEPT from reading the views of other reviewers. Many of the objections seem insubstantial.
