That said, the separation of libraries into separate modules with full history is looking very much improved!
Well, I know it isn't glamorous and it doesn't satisfy the need to say "look it builds," but *that* is what we're asking people to evaluate now.
So what are the plans for "look it builds"? At the very least, I would prefer that requirement to use cmake to put together symlinks be removed. What's the plan for that? Jürgen has posted a patch that teaches Boost.Build to do that, and I can give it a try, but before that I think cloning of the master repository should work (others already reported some issue with chrono) and at least Boost.Build should have its final layout. Also, what would be the process for tweaking any infrastructure code? Commit to SVN and wait until git mirror is updated? Or create a special branch/repo in git and do changes there, rebasing against new versions? Thanks, Volodya
