The formal review period for the Dynamic Bitset library by 
Jeremy Siek and Chuck Alison is now complete. The review ran 
from June 8th through June 17th. After some improvements to the 
documentation the reviewers achieved consensus to accept the 
library. Actually, there was a single "no" vote, but it was 
without technical basis. Thanks to all the pople who took the 
time to participate in the review. Thanks also goes out to the 
authors, who responded efficiently to the major issues raised.

I believe that the major technical comments/concerns were 
resolved by the authors during the review. Please speak up if I 
missed something.

Remaining suggestions:

The group strongly urges the a name change, with several people 
suggesting dynamic_bitset.
Several people suggest removing the truth tables from the 
documentation.

Future consideration:
There were several requests for iterators, especially if the 
standard provides finer granularity iterators in the future.

Thanks again to all involved. And thanks to Dave Abrahams for 
the fine Cuban cigars ;-)
