-you can [@mailto:daniel_at_[hidden] send me an email]. Let me know if
-it's okay to forward it to the list.
+*Update:* I had a few responses, but none were opposed to this change, so
+I made it in trunk a little while ago. It should be included in the next

-Thanks again.
+There was some concern that we would remove support for later compilers
+(e.g. Visual Studio 2008, aka. Visual C++ 9.0). We have no such plans,
+this change is only for very old compilers. As always support across
+Boost libraries is not uniform, but most library authors do try to
+support as wide a range of compilers as is feasible.
