It was. We (I?) decided to put it into the same Subversion  
repository, so that it would be easy to keep all of the sandbox  
history for a library when it is accepted into Boost. With  
SourceForge, this was a real pain: we had to either beg SF staff to  
move over the CVS history, or we had to just re-import and lose easy  
access to that history. Subversion dumpfiles can make this a little  
easier, and the Subversion server is under our control now, but it  
still requires user intervention.
