Hi to all,

Sorry for the delay, but finally I've found some time to uploaded a new 
version of Boost.Move:

Sandbox:

https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/browser/sandbox/move

ZIP file with docs:

Online docs:

Changes:

-> Changed folder from boost/move_semantics to boost/move.
-> I've extracted all the containers from Boost.Interprocess, put them 
in boost/container and they only depend on official Boost SVN code (I 
haven't tested it, but it should be also nice with Boost 1.38). There is 
no documentation for these containers.
-> Fixed a bug with EDG-based compilers.
-> Note: I haven't applied yet the patch for non-sfinae compilers.

With this changes, I think move emulation is quite portable (at least 
MSVC, EDG and GCC).

Now that containers are independent from Boost.Interprocess, I would 
like to ask about the next step. If the move library is added, where 
should we put those containers? I would like to just drop common 
(vector, list, ...) Boost.Interprocess containers and just maintain 
these move-aware ones.

If move emulation is considered mature enough, we should also plan when 
could we port all custom move-emulations present in several boost 
libraries to the "official" move library.

Best,

Ion
