Have you run tests on a wide variety of recent compilers ? Other than 
possibly that I think you are basically done on your side. I would wait 
for any pre-announcement for the next Boost release, and then post a 
message in response to that saying that Boost.Sort is ready. Whatever 
you may be asked further to do at that point, if anything, should be 
trivial.

Hopefully some of the people usually involved at the superproject level 
and/or preparing the next release will chime in on this thread if there 
are other things still outstanding for you to do.
