We were discussing a full fat, hard versioned dependency management 
system with external dependency injection facility. This achieves 
modular Boost.

You claimed we were discussing removing all Boost dependencies from 
Boost libraries, and then made a stink about your claim which if true 
you would be right to do.

Your claim is however complete make believe, and you are complaining 
about your interpretation of the proposal, not what is actually 
happening.

I appreciate some actual documentation would be very useful. You may 
find the slides I'll presenting tomorrow of use:
