Re: [boost] circular_buffer?

There were two ideas floating around:

1.  A circular_buffer that would extend its capacity when necessary 
(similar to vector and deque).

2.  A circular_buffer that would throw an exception if the capacity was 
exceeded.

Which one (or both?) are you interested in?

Personally I'm only interested in #1, and am willing to donate the 
interface to an existing implementatation (taken pretty much from vector 
and deque).  Unfortunately I can not donate the implementation itself, 
but I would be happy to participate in and discuss design decisions on 
such an implementation.
