Hi Joel,

I don't know, but I guess that the list of 03 compliant compilers will be
quite short. Have you a list?

How do you qualify a C++11 only branch? 
One that supports only C++11 compliant compilers?
One that uses only standard C++11 libraries and itself or could libraries on
this branch use libraries on the current Boost branch?

Could you clarify?

Best,
Vicente
