New Revision: 41447
URL: http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/changeset/41447
Log:
Move the review wizard reports to the new site. I'm not sure about how this is
organized - I would the expect the review schedule (currently in
community/reviews) and reports to be together. Refs #1368.

+
+ <p>Happy New Year! Here are some statistics regarding Boost
+ Library reviews in 2005:</p>
+
+ <ul class="simple">
+ <li>12 Libraries were reviewed</li>
+
+ <li>8 Libraries were accepted</li>
+
+ <li>1 Library (Function Types) was accepted pending a

+
+ <li>2 Libraries were rejected</li>
+
+ <li>1 Library has yet to receive a final verdict (ASIO)</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>Policy Pointer has been removed from the review queue
+ because the author has stated that it is not quite ready.</p>
+
+ <p>We need review managers. Please take a look at the list of
+ libraries in need of managers and check out their descriptions.
+ If you can serve as review manager for any of them, send one of
+ us an email.</p>

+
+ <td class="field-body">While intrusive containers were

+ standard containers, which don't support intrusive
+ techniques. Boost.Intrusive not only reintroduces this
+ technique to C++, but also encapsulates the
+ implementation in STL-like interfaces. Hence anyone

-<p>We need experienced review managers. Please take a look at the list
-of libraries in need of managers and check out their descriptions. In
-general review managers are active boost participants or library
-contributors. If you can serve as review manager for any of them,
-email Ron Garcia or John Phillips, "garcia at cs dot indiana dot edu"
-and "jphillip at capital dot edu" respectively.</p>
-<p>A link to this report will be posted to www.boost.org.
-If you would like us to make any modifications or additions to this
-report before we do that, please email Ron or John.</p>
-<p>If you're library author and plan on submitting a library for review
-in the next 3-6 months, send Ron or John a short description of your
-library and we'll add it to the Libraries Under Construction below.
-We know that there are many libraries that are near completion, but we
-have hard time keeping track all of them. Please keep us informed
-about your progress.</p>
