* What is your evaluation of the design?
* What is your evaluation of the implementation?

Adequate

* What is your evaluation of the documentation?

Needs a better motivating discussion as to how this library improves
upon std::exception.  Maybe a "best-practices" section
could illustrate a few common scenerios.

* What is your evaluation of the potential usefulness
of the library?

High

* Did you try to use the library? With what compiler?
Did you have any problems?

Compiled fine on my gcc 4.1x compiler.

* How much effort did you put into your evaluation?
A glance? A quick reading? In-depth study?

2 hours.  It took me hardly any time getting up to speed on this
library and it works as advertised.

* Are you knowledgeable about the problem domain?

I'm a long time user of "std::exception".

*should this library be approved as a boost library?

Count me as a "yes" vote.  Thanks to the author.
