Boost 1.36.0 has been released and is available from SourceForge. See http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/ This release include four new libraries: * Accumulators: Framework for incremental calculation, and collection of statistical accumulators, from Eric Niebler. * Exception: A library for transporting of arbitrary data in exception objects, and transporting of exceptions between threads, from Emil Dotchevski. * Units: Zero-overhead dimensional analysis and unit/quantity manipulation and conversion, from Matthias Schabel and Steven Watanabe * Unordered: Unordered associative containers, from Daniel James. Updated libraries include Asio, Assign, Function, Hash, Interprocess, Intrusive, Math, MPI, Multi-index Containers, PtrContainer, Spirit, Thread, Wave, and Xpressive. The release managers were Beman Dawes, Rene Rivera, and Daniel James. One note of caution: the initial SourceForge release files were missing some of the documentation. If you downloaded before 16:00 UTC, August 14th, please download again to be sure to get the full distribution. Sorry for the inconvenience! --Beman Dawes PS: The 1.36.0 version of the web site should be up within a few hours. If you can't wait, see http://beta.boost.org now!

I assume you mean on the website. As Beman said, the 1.36 information wasn't up at the time of release. Rene put it up a couple of hours ago. Daniel

Grrr... One of my highest priority tasks for the next release is going to be to get a system in place that will automatically scan a release snapshot for the presence of certain files, and optionally verify size, date, and other properties. Thanks for the heads up. --Beman

The docs seem to be broken still. When I click on 'asio' in the alphabetical list of libraries boost_1_36_0/libs/libraries.htm#Alphabetically I get redirected to http://www.boost.org/regression-logs/cs-win32_metacomm/doc/html/boost_asio.h... and get a 404 not found error. I just now (aug-16th) downloaded boost_1_36_0.tar.bz2 from a sourceforge mirror. Any ideas why? Best regards Hajo

I suspect you got a stale version from some (SourceForge?) cache. I tried (and failed) to reproduce the problem by downloading and unpacking boost_136_0.tar.bz2 from SourceForge, and then clicking down to the Alphabetic library listing, then clicking Asio. It worked fine. HTH, --Beman

that is very strange. I've just tried the third sourceforge mirror (two in europe and the last one in new york) and tried a different format (7z) but still end up at http://www.boost.org/regression-logs/cs-win32_metacomm/doc/html/boost_asio.h... when I click on asio in file:/// ... boost_1_36_0/libs/libraries.htm#Alphabetically BTW, the checkout from the svn repository also shows the same behaviour. If you look at http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/browser/tags/release/Boost_1_36_0/doc/html/b... you see that it contains the same odd redirection. Is there any postprocessing done in the release process so that the documentation contained in the release package is different from what is checked in? And is there any place I get a working copy from? Thank you very much in advance. Regards Hajo
