Good luck with that.

I'm skeptical that one will be able to mix boost 2.x and boost 1.x and 
still maintain some sort of coherence.  I'll just wait and see.

So phrasing my original question in terms of the above: Boost 
serialization library should be marked obsolete? Note that I'm not 
advocating in favor or against this proposition.  I'm just trying to 
understand it.

And any library which uses an "obsolete" library would also be "obsolete".

Have I got this right?
