- Which library/ies are you maintaining? (I assume this isn't some sort of private information - otherwise ignore the question)
Boost Predef (and Boost Build, but that's not a library)
- Would you like to unconditionally use c++11 features if you would not have to worry about this breaking boost internal users?
No.
- Would you like to unconditionally use c++11 features if you would not have to worry about this breaking any users?
No. - Would you deprecate your library completely if there were no
boost-internal users and your current dependencies required c++11 (e.g. because your library has been merged into the c++11 standard library anyway)
No. - Are you yourself using any boost library (in an up-to-date version)
in a c++03, non-boost project?
No. - Do you have any Idea if the latest versions of your library is
used by any important/significant number of c++02 projects? [It is only important if *you* consider those projects important and or the number significant]
Yes. It's used by many Boost libraries (directly and indirectly). And it's used by a variety of external projects. I don't know what versions of C++ they use though. Especially since Predef supports C++ < 98, and C, and Objective C, and Objective C++, and CUDA.
