Do you mean:

"* Have you considered adding a new namespace and import the definitions 
from either boost or the standard library, so that the use of macros 
will be reduced and adding some non intrusive adaptation would be 
possible? I have addressed this problem from a different perspective 
(See 
https://github.com/boostorg/thread/tree/develop/include/boost/thread/csbl). 
What do you think of this approach?"

I don't see any documentation regarding your perspective. Care to 
explain it ?
