I really want to give my approval, for what it is worth...

I vote to accept Phoenix into Boost.

However, I think it is important to keep Boost.Bind as many of Boost users
don't know (yet) Phoenix but intensively use Bind, that's to say they only
use Bind because they just need it, no more.

The documentation is excellent - I had to use it for some personal projects
- and I got used to Phoenix very quickly. The syntax is quite simple
compared to the work done in background by the library.

Thank to Phoenix, we can now write FP code in C++ quickly, efficiently.
Thanks guys.
