I've recently started to write ublas adaptors for multi_array and its views.
A couple of observations/questions:

- it probably would be a bit easier to adapt multi_array if it would be
default constructible
- I don't like the necessity very much to 'typedef' multi_array's range
- how does one distinguish multi_arrays from multi_array_views generically?

And one from Kresimir Fresl:
- how does one distinguish C storage and Fortran storage layout generically?

Thanks,
Joerg
