Dear Degski,

     It works on VS 2019 and 2017 just fine. I just have to think about what I
should do about VS 2015 (if anything at all), since that compiler claims to be a
C++11 compiler and this is supposed to be a C++11 Library.

Since this is a *new* library, current Boost guidance is that you should not
expend much effort on trying to get it to work with earlier than VS 2017.

Getting your library to work with current VS, GCC and Clang compilers working IS
needed.
