Fellow Boosters,

I have just loaded Serialization Draft  #12 to the files section.

It incorporates numerous small changes submitted by many
people who have built it on differing platforms.  The manual
includes a new section on creating ones own archive formats.

Status:

MSVC 7.0 compiles, links and passes all tests.
MSVC 7.1 I have reports of successful compile
Commeau
        compile issues with non-intrusive serializer
        library and test link problems - I think these are bjam/jamfile related
GCC 3.2 with Cygwin
        This combination doesn't support wide character i/o
        compiles, links,  and passes all test except xml

Regarding the issue with GCC.3.2 above:

Libray with a couple of (benign?) warnings
All tests compile and build without errors
tests using xml_archives throw signal just after entering test_main !
so far I have been unable to determine the cause of this.  Any
help on this would be appreciated.
