My apologies to anyone who relies on this list for notification of reviews (I know of at least one)!</div><div><br></div>Dear Boost community, <br><br>The formal review of JeanHeyd Meneide's out_ptr library starts Sunday, June 16th<br>and ends on Wednesday, June 26th.<br><br>out_ptr is a library for making it easy to interoperate between smart pointers and traditional C-style initialization and allocation interfaces. It also enables doing so in a way that allows library authors to opt into speed optimizations for their smart pointers that give them performance equivalent to typical C pointers (see benchmarks (<a href="https://github.com/ThePhD/out_ptr/blob/master/docs/out_ptr/benchmarks.adoc" target="_blank">https://github.com/ThePhD/out_ptr/blob/master/docs/out_ptr/benchmarks.adoc</a>) and the Standard C++ proposal for more details).<br><br>Online docs can be found here:<br><br> <a href="https://github.com/ThePhD/out_ptr/blob/master/docs/out_ptr.adoc" target="_blank">https://github.com/ThePhD/out_ptr/blob/master/docs/out_ptr.adoc</a><br><br>The GitHub repository is available here: <br><br> <a href="https://github.com/ThePhD/out_ptr" target="_blank">https://github.com/ThePhD/out_ptr</a><br><br>Also, there is an associated standards proposal:<br><br><a href="https://thephd.github.io/vendor/future_cxx/papers/d1132.html" target="_blank">https://thephd.github.io/vendor/future_cxx/papers/d1132.html</a><br><br>We encourage your participation in this review. At a minimum, please state: <br><br>- Whether you believe the library should be accepted into Boost <br>- Your name <br>- Your knowledge of the problem domain <br><br>You are strongly encouraged to also provide additional information: <br><br>- What is your evaluation of the library's: <br> * Design <br> * Implementation <br> * Documentation <br> * Tests <br> * Usefulness <br>- Did you attempt to use the library? If so: <br> * Which compiler(s)? <br> * What was the experience? Any problems? <br>- How much effort did you put into your evaluation of the review? <br><br>All issues discussed during this review will be tracked on the library's <br>GitHub issue tracker at <a href="https://github.com/ThePhD/out_ptr/issues" target="_blank">https://github.com/ThePhD/out_ptr/issues</a>. <br><br>Regards, <br>Zach Laine<br></div>
