Hi,

Thanks for the interest!

As per the review verdict, the double ended classes should be part of
Boost.Container,
with the following major changes:
 - support of pre-C++11 compilers (e.g: move emulation)
 - integration with the Container util components and extras
 - integration with the Container test practices and documentation
 - removal of the built-in small buffer optimization (should be provided by
the allocator)

Judging by the review activity and results, my perception was,
that there isn't a great interest in these components
 - therefore I decided to focus my attention on different projects.
Of course, given the need, we can change that.

Do you have any particular devector feature you really want?

Thanks,
Benedek
