[epochs] Internal relevance in post-C++03 Boost of Boost03 components vs. standard equivalents

For those of you who are following the discussion on epochs, I've just 
prepared a report
on the relevance of "legacy" components intra-Boost for these Boost libs 
that require
C++11 (or higher) to work:

https://github.com/joaquintides/boost_epoch/blob/master/boost_vs_std_internal.MD

Quoting from the report:

"It can be seen that (direct) usage of Boost03 components is residual 
(and in some cases
due to backwards compatibility rather than for their functionality). We 
can draw then the
conclusion that newer Boost libraries are already dismissing legacy 
dependencies when
the standard environment offers alternatives."

Best,
