Dear Boost Users:

I have developed a number of reliable web based applications and ISAPI filters 
for Windows in C++ using several of the Boost libraries.  

Although I have no experience in Unix, I am very interested in doing similar 
web development in C++ on Unix.

Can someone recommend a good compiler and platform (Unix Variant)?  I've 
noticed that the following seem to be pretty popular for web servers.  To keep 
things easy, I guess that I'd be using a specific variant for both development 
and web server:

FreeBSD, Fedora, Ubantu, and CentOS.

Please Advise,

Jeff
