[boost] Re: Naming Proposed Libraries

Hi Rob & All,

My 2 cents: "Boost Candidate.Library" seems awkward. As David
suggested, a precise English description in email (using "proposed",
"candidate" or whatever) should be adequate. All docs and code should
look as it will if accepted, with a possible disclaimer on the front
page of the docs and/or comments in the main header.

Not (entirely) serious: As we are all C++ folks, we could use more
compact syntax. Say, "--Boost.Library" or "?Boost.Library?" or maybe
even "!Boost.Library" to convey the desired semantics. :)
