Hello,

I gave a try at the implementation of the expected_or_error class.
I used the boost layout to package the implementation, you can download 
it here : http://www.hyc.io/boost/expected.zip
Finally, feel free to explore the documentation I wrote 
http://www.hyc.io/boost/index.html

Note: In the example folder, the "b2" command never terminates (but 
correctly generates binaries), I can't figure out why.

Please, do not hesitate to give me advices and critics to improve this 
library and my future proposal.

Thank you,
Pierre Talbot.
