Hi,
I encountered that the ticket system at svn.boost.org is not up-to-date: components coroutine2 and fiber are missing. At least the reports created for coroutine2 and fiber do not know the components (not in drop-down list).
I would vote for shutdown of the ticket-system in favour of github - for me it makes no sense to manage two bug reporting systems.
The bug reporting system has worked well for me for more than a decade and I wouldn't want to give it up. But I don't believe that everyone has to agree with me. I don't see any value in requiring that all libraries use the same system. Boost can/should require an issue posting sysyem, but doesn't have to mandate which one. So just shut down the system for coroutine and fiber. Problem solved.
Sort of +1 But you are right that a unified system is needed to move forward. Ideas - and especially action - welcome. But we must not lose the over-a-decade of history, and there are lots of links to Trac items in the documentation. Paul --- Paul A. Bristow Prizet Farmhouse Kendal UK LA8 8AB +44 (0) 1539 561830
