Hi,

In the library list for Boost 1.84:

https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_84_0/

there is an entry for Boost.StringRef. However, that library was removed
from libs/utility/meta/libraries.json. Or, more precisely, it was
renamed to Boost.StringView (key: utility/string_view).

The problem is that the StringRef entry in the above list has a broken
link to the library docs, and the rename was supposed to fix it (by
having an entry for StringView instead, linking to its docs). I'm not
sure where StringRef comes from, but can it be removed?

This has been reported a few times already:
