There was a special session Friday morning at BoostCon 2011 to
announce the formation of a Boost Steering Committee.

The slides from that session have been annotated to make them more
comprehensible to those not present.

(There is also a link on steering.boost.org, but DNS isn't resolving
that yet for me. Instead use

We haven't yet decided anything beyond what is on the slides, so it
will take a bit of time before details emerge. As the slides mention,
the first job of the steering committee is to design of its own
operating procedures and policies. Input from the Boost community will
help form those procedures and policies.

The steering committee is an important change in the way Boost operates!

We hope it will position Boost to continue to grow and prosper.
