Thanks Niall.

Some comments:

Boost.Functional / Invoke: This has already been fully implemented by
Agustin Berge here:
https://github.com/STEllAR-GROUP/hpx/blob/master/hpx/util/invoke.hpp. Feel
free to use.

Boost.Thread / Work-Stealing-Thread-Pool: This is something already
implemented as part of HPX (https://github.com/STEllAR-GROUP/hpx), we have
several work-stealing implementations, FWIW. Feel free to use.

Boost.Thread / Scheduler-Executor: Note that there is a newer document
(D3904, sorry I have no direct link), which will be discussed next week in
Issaquah and I expect for it to be changed significantly.

Boost.Thread / Parallel algorithms: Should that include N3554:
http://www.open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG21/docs/papers/2013/n3554.pdf?
