Subject: [boost] namespace noncopyable_
From: Kenneth Laskoski (kennethlaskoski_at_[hidden])

Why is this nested namespace noncopyable_ necessary? The comment "//
protection from unintended ADL" seems greek to me. Can someone please
enlighten me and point out a practical consequence of simply defining
"namespace boost { class noncopyable {...}; }"

Thanks,
Kenneth
