First:
  Did I miss something, or is mpl up for review? Because there are a lot
of mpl reviews being posted.

Second:
  Did I miss that Loki is up for review? Because its being compared to a
library which hasn't been released. 

I had thought that Andrei asked for help, and I did volunteer some time,
and last I looked I was on the boost page.

Its really unfair to the library developers to have to justify every
nuance of the  implementation if they aren't really ready.

Thirdly:
  Is there some hard rule that boost can't have two typelists? Why do we
have to have one mega all encompassing solution to all problems? Isn't
it possible to have a simpler typelist and a complex one? Screws and
nails, each has a use.

Also when we criticize libraries, we really come down hard on
implementation and it seems to me that we forget about the interface,
which as a user of a library is much more important.

  Yours,
