I should add that the library source code that is submitted for the
review is tagged boost-review-2023-11-26. That is, the review version of
the code can be accessed at:

https://github.com/Lastique/scope/tree/boost-review-2023-11-26

There are develop and master branches as well. The code in develop may
be modified during the review.
