FWIW, boost::gtdl had to change its name to boost_date_time.
Acronyms are frowned upon, AFAIK. the name boost::stl wouldn't
make it if stl was submitted to boost, I think ;o/

...I may be mistaken though ...

Anyway, I suggest that we leave this issue for now. Keep up
the good work. In the near future, I'm sure someone will come
up with a nice syntax. I haven't looked at the code in detail yet.
Perhaps I might be able to suggest something later as I get
to know more about the library.

Keep up the good work! :-)

Regards,
