Re: [Boost-users] XML library?

Hi there,

regarding POCO: I was wondering whether it wouldn't make sense for the POCO
and Boost groups to cooperate more closely ? Some of the work done for both
library collections is redundant - e.g. both have smart pointers and
threads. And some of the other libraries complement each other. Plus, POCO
is also delivered under the Boost license and is portable.

Are there contacts between the core development groups ? 

Well, ob course the above is just my "user's perspective". I realise that
actually merging two long-standing projects will be a bit of a problem.

Best, Ruediger
