How about mentioning that a bunch of Boost stuff (ideas, at least) is intended for use in TR1 and, AFAIK, TR2 and TRn. And that surely standard libraries wouldn't be subject to these IP concerns? (Of course, they might reply: "Fine, once it gets into standard libraries you can use it." Which means you're waiting years.)
