This just showed up in my junk mail box.

Vcpkg updates: Static linking is now available

https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg

With 90+ libraries in its catalog, Vcpkg makes it easier to find the
right open source library for Visual C++ 2015. The latest update now
supports static linking.

This kind of interesting:

a) Does this constitute and open-source source code deployment system 
that perhaps we might learn from/exploit?

b) I'm intrigued with the comment under "License":

"Code licensed under MIT License"

Boost is in this repository - I don't remember changing the Boost license.
