We had and have internal discusssions about these issues. The current
answer is no. Also, I cannot speak for the group here. The official
contact would be <contact_at_[hidden]>. We will have a meeting right
before Christmas and I assume our license will be an issue again. If
things change I definitely let you know. Just a personal note, I like
the ideas behind boost. I am sorry I cannot promise anything from CGAL.

Cheers, 

Lutz
