Not sure how much time I can offer, but I'd like to contribute to 
testing on Linux. At my company, we have some hundred modules (mostly 
libraries and plugins) with a nice amount of dependencies. Our current 
build system is based on CMake. I'd be interested in seeing how the two 
systems compare, and (maybe) offering one or two suggestions, too...

A question from a user and occasional contributor to the overflowing bug 
tracker, hoping that you can provide an answer without compromising the 
dramatics for BoostCon :-)

How could decentralization influence the overflowing bug tracker?
