[boost] Re: small library proposal -- rebind template args and function pointer types

Hi James,

is it possible to have a look inside ?

Rebinding template arguments sounds interesting (although I find the 
order of the parameters a bit strange).
I could imagine cases where this is useful (for example making a 
std::{container}<type> a std::{container}< proxy<type> >).

Jonathan Turkanis wrote a small lib for decomposing and synthesizing 
member function / function types, which covers the function part of your 
library.

[ see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel/111645 ]

I am currently working on some internal refinement of this, so I am 
curious to see how you implemented the function part.
( If it inspires my code your work will be acknowledged, of course. )
As I said in the thread referenced above I don't really know any real 
world applications for the synthesis part of it - same thing with the 
function part of your library.

Regards,

Tobias
