Back in 2008, changing shared_ptr operator< to compare by pointer value rather than owner was discussed: http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2008/10/143175.php There seem to be convincing arguments for both implementations (aliasing, consistency with equality operator etc). Is boost::shared_ptr intended to be a compliant C++11 std::shared_ptr? If so, will shared_ptr be changed to comply with [util.smartptr.shared.cmp] or is the ensuing breakage too high a price to pay for 100% compliance? Thanks Matt
