Stop. This is my final warning!

This is OT for Boost. Contrary to some popular mythology, we do not decide
what happens to the standard here. Boost does develop new libraries
appropriate for standardization.

If you want to discuss changing the language standard, please take the
conversation to comp.std.c++ or another appropriate forum.
