Myself and John are of remarkably similar opinion on most coding 
philosophies, probably because we both think at large scale, so 
prepare yourself for that Robert. I think though you'll find he won't 
give any concrete opinions in writing out of habit, but he will in 
person, and they are not positive about recent Boost history if I 
remember correctly.

Anyway, try him for yourself at jlakos_at_bloomberg.net. And tell him I 
sent you, and that I send him my best regards.
