For boost.test, Gennadiy and me have to come up with a solution.
First, Boost Test can not require C++11 support. if you want to create a Boost Test which does require C++11 support make a Boost Test2 or whatever you want to call your new library that requires C++11 support. Others have said the same thing. It is beyond me how you or Gennadiy arbitrarily decided that libraries using Boost Test must run with C++11 support when you both know that there are many Boost libraries that do not require or need C++11, and these libraries use Boost Test.
+1 This is a major decision that requires discussion and agreement, and needs prior announcement at least a year ahead. Springing a major change like this without any notice or announcement is just not acceptable. Paul --- Paul A. Bristow Prizet Farmhouse Kendal UK LA8 8AB +44 (0) 1539 561830
