I would like to ask a design question for any Boost developers or anyone 
on this mailing list who might care to answer.

You are designing or working on a library, perhaps for Boost, perhaps 
for fun, and part of the design of the library has some public 
functionality taking a shared pointer as input. You:

1) Use boost::shared_ptr
2) Use std::shared_ptr
3) Use both boost::shared_ptr and std::shared_ptr with the same 
functionality
4) Use neither, you roll your own shared pointer-like functionality
5) You don't lke shared pointers and use raw pointers instead

I really am curious about this. I haven't put any limitation on your 
library or made any presumption on who your library is for, on purpose. 
Thanks for anyone answering !
