That would be really nice. Thank you ! I understand that CI testing of 
Boost libraries would have the value of providing immediate automatic 
testing for 'develop' branch changes, and that is a good thing. If that 
could be automated for any Boost library it would be great.

I will look at it. But I am the wrong person to deal with yet another 
piece of software that refuses to document itself adequately, such as 
TravisCI and its .travis.yml file.

I appreciate it. Let me look at whatever it takes to get iostreams to 
work with TravisCI.
