Subject: [boost] [type_traits][general] Best practice for inline namespaces?
From: John Maddock (jz.maddock_at_[hidden])

I was thinking of adding inline namespace support (ie lib versioning) to
type_traits, but what's the best practice for naming the inline
namespace? I was thinking of going with some mangled version of
BOOST_VERSION which would effectively change the namespace with each
release. That feels like it's probably right to me: old versions of any
traits would then be archived in boost::tt105600:: or whatever version
the change happened. Comments?

Thanks, John.
