Vicente will clarify his intent, but his post was somewhat ambiguous.
Robert, Rob, you are right that I could have rejected the library but 
I've preferred to accept it subject to a new review.
That still seems confusing. If it needs a new, full review, in what way was it accepted? I presume you mean to suggest that you think it's close to acceptable, and you want to encourage Paul to finish the effort, but can't you couch a rejection in those terms?

IOW, I understand you to be saying, "While the library will be a powerful and useful tool, it is not yet ready for Boost to accept. I very much want Paul to make the changes that have been suggested, and which he had accepted, and to resubmit his library in the near future. Nevertheless, I must reject the library in its present form."

Does that not convey your intent well, including encouraging Paul to finish the task, without being contradictory like your formulation?
