Dear Boost community,
The formal review of JeanHeyd Meneide's out_ptr library starts Sunday, June 16th
and ends on Wednesday, June 26th.
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 (https://github.com/ThePhD/out_ptr/blob/master/docs/out_ptr/benchmarks.adoc) and the Standard C++ proposal for more details).
Online docs can be found here:
https://github.com/ThePhD/out_ptr/blob/master/docs/out_ptr.adoc
The GitHub repository is available here:

Also, there is an associated standards proposal:
