The formal review of Fernando Cacciola's Optional library begins today and 
runs until the end of Wednesday, December 18.

The Optional library provides a class template "optional<T>" that either 
contains a value of type "T" or contains no value (i.e., having a value is 
optional). It is useful, for example, as the return type of functions that 
may or may not return a value, depending on their inputs.

The Optional library can be downloaded from the Boost files section:
  http://groups.yahoo.com/group/boost/files/optional.zip

Please state in review comments whether or not you believe that the library 
should be accepted into Boost. Further guidelines for writing reviews can be

        Thank you,
        Doug Gregor (Optional (but not uninitialized) review manager)
