Hi

Boost::signals are not thread-safe
http://boost.org/doc/html/signals/s04.html#id2738867
"Boost.Signals will support thread safety in the future."

I would like to know when this feature will be implemented, if somebody 
is working on it.

I like very much the fact that Qt slot/signals are thread safe, it helps 
really a *lot* :
"the slot is invoked when control returns to the event loop of the 
thread to which the object belongs. The slot is executed in the thread 
where the receiver object lives."
http://doc.trolltech.com/4.1/threads.html

Do you plan also to make Boost::signals executed in the thread where the 
receive object lives?

Thanks in advance for your answers

Regards,
