[boost] [serialization] using non-intrusive load and save

Hi,

What's the recommended way to spit non-intrusive serialization into two
functions?

It looks like I could use tag dispatch with the nested metafunction is_saving or
is_loading, but I want to give a very simple example of non-intrusive
serialization.

Also, is there any reason that instances of these metafunctions aren't
convertible to bool, like the boolean metafunctions from type_traits and mpl?
