You’re welcome on the Slack Boost group, where we can help you put your lib in good shape for proposal!

FWIW, I’ve contributed several libs to Boost and b2 is still above my level :-) I don’t know what that says about b2 complexity and/or my professional competence, but it shows that the tool is not an insurmountable obstacle. I always depended on the kindness of experts, and so can anyone. Much such activity goes on on Slack that’s not reflected on the ML.
