https://gitlab.com/correaa/boost-multi. I've had a look at this repository, and these are my thoughts. It looks like the author has invested considerable effort to polish everything about the library up to be Boost quality. The README.md is comprehensive, well written, and sounds like the kind of things we care about. I don't know a whole lot about the particular needs of robust multi-dimensional array users but this has got to be worth reviewing.

It seems the library requires C++17 or greater, which is unfortunate. But especially unfortunate considering that there are no features which actually require it other than using std::pmr::memory_resource. But this could have been conditionally enabled on the C++ version.

That seems to me like the sort of thing that could/should be thrashed out at review time, and either back-ported to C++14 or not. John.
