Currently, nobody has write access to Boost.Rational, and I see a number of open pull requests (mostly by John Maddock) lingering. John, would you like write access to it so that you can apply your suggested changes?

Could do, but I'm maxed out right now: some of those changes are uncontroversial, but the last ones(s) may break existing code (even though they're rather sensible) and so may need some more thought.

While we're at it - Boost.Random has a number of outstanding pull requests and issues that aren't getting attending to - and folks have been asking about it (much more than rational). Any takers?

Did anything ever come of this? Perhaps they could be added to the CMT?

Steven Watanbe has returned to the fold and seems to be fixing Random issues as we speak, a few of the other open issues look to be low-hanging-fruit, so hopefully they'll be fixed shortly - Steven?

That applies to rational as well? Thanks for the response.

Steven Watanabe has been responding (intermittently) to Boost.Random bug reports.

If no one is maintaining these libraries, the CMT is the place for them to be. — Marshall P.S. People are invited to contribute to the community maintenance team. I am attempting to clear the current bottleneck (which is me!)
