Well, a while ago I started an effort to write a new Python frontend to
Boost.Build, naming it 'b3' (wrongly believing that the '2' in 'b2'
represented a version).
This is now morphed into 'faber'
(https://github.com/stefanseefeld/faber,
https://stefanseefeld.github.io/faber/doc/html/index.html), which I'm
intending to present here soon, as a Python frontend to Boost.Build. Not
sure whether that will prevent Boost from dying, though. ;-)
