Hi Christophe -

Thank you for submitting this library to the the incubator in 
preparation for a review. I saw your presentation in 2014 and I believe 
that this library solves a common problem.

My first question: I see that the library is listed as C++11 and also 
has dependencies on Boost.System, Boost.Thread, Boost.Chrono, and 
Boost.DateTime. Much of the functionality provided by those Boost 
libraries is now part of the C++11 or C++14 standard.

Can you comment on the specific Boost dependencies and if the standard 
versions would suffice?

Thanks!
michael
