Not forgotten. I've announced publicly on this list that the review
feedback was overwhelming and raised open-ended design issues that I
probably wouldn't have the resources to address. IIRC, John Phillips
took up the mantle, but I haven't heard anything further. I suppose that
puts Time_series in the orphaned library catalog. It probably belongs
back in the sandbox and should get another (mini?)review should it ever
be completed.

This is under active construction. As of BoostCon, we have a technical
solution for the universal placeholders problem, and we're working on
the extensibility hooks now. Once we settle on those, the rest should
come fairly quickly.
