  So I'm sending some important stuff from GMail account that almost
  certainly was missed:

What is Boost.Nowide:
--------------------------------

Boost.Nowide is a library that make cross platform
Unicode aware programming easier.

The library provides an implementation of standard C and C++
library functions, such that their inputs are UTF-8 aware on
Windows without requiring to use Wide API.

It was inspiration and inspired by http://utf8everywhere.org/
development ideas and policy.
