Hmm. I would much prefer, in that case, to see tuple directly in boost.
Subnamespaces should be for domain libraries (e.g. boost::python,
boost::graph), as we have discussed earlier
(http://groups.yahoo.com/group/boost/message/7349). Tuples are not a domain,
but a utility.

[Gary]
Fine by us. I was concerned that there would be another boost library with
"tuples", "nil", "const_nil", "ignore", "cref", "ref" and that adding more
names to the global namespace "boost" would cause other library submissions
grief. But its easier for us if its just in "boost". (Note: nil will be
changed as noted earlier.)

  Yours,
