This is a very interesting topic and I've just published an article covering the Boost question we're talking about. It's called "Good Code && Good Advice", is packed with Boost usage, and you'll find it on www.skeletonsoftware.net/downloads.aspx.
Hi Björn
Nice article, and btw, it was your book that got me started with Boost, so it's all your fault really!
Regards, Rob.
ps, How about volume two, covering a few more libraries?
