Hi,
I recently noticed that there is a plan to move everything out of
Boost.Utility. Is that right?
There is a small feature in there:
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_55_0/libs/utility/OptionalPointee.html
(header <boost/utility/compare_pointees.hpp>, added along Boost.Optional.
Should it be moved out of Utility to Boost.Optional also? If so, any hints
on how I should preserve the backwards compatibility for its users?

Regards,
&rzej
