Dear All,

The fast track review of Frédéric Bron's extensions to the Type Traits 
Library is ending tomorrow.
If you plan to submit a review, please do so as soon as possible.

Thanks in advance to all participants of the review.

===========
What is it?
===========

This extension adds 37 new traits corresponding to the following 37 
operators:
- binary: ==, !=,<,<=,>,>=, , +, -, *, /, %, +=, -=, *=, /=, %=, ,
&&, ||, ,&, |, ^,<<,>>,&=, |=, ^=,<<=,>>=
- prefix: ++, --, +, -, !, ~, *
- postfix: ++, --

Each trait can detect if the operator can be used with particular
types and if needed, if the return type is convertible to some type.

===================
Getting the library
===================

The latest version can be downloaded by different ways:
- from the vault with unix line ending:
http://www.boostpro.com/vault/index.php?action=downloadfile&filename=type_traits.tar.bz2&directory=Extension& 

- from the vault with dos line ending:
http://www.boostpro.com/vault/index.php?action=downloadfile&filename=type_traits-dos.tar.bz2&directory=Extension& 

- from the sandbox:http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/type_traits/

The entry point of the documentation is
type_traits/libs/type_traits/doc/html/boost_typetraits/category/value_traits/operators.html 

The library has been tested with:
- MSVC 8, 9, 10 on Windows,
- g++ 4.4.5 on Linux,
- intel 10.0 and 11.1 on Linux.

To test the library, the simplest is to untar the headers in your
boost include directory. For this, you can download the header part of
the extension:
- from the vault with unix line ending:
http://www.boostpro.com/vault/index.php?action=downloadfile&filename=type_traits.headers_only.tar.bz2&directory=Extension& 

- from the vault with dos line ending:
http://www.boostpro.com/vault/index.php?action=downloadfile&filename=type_traits.headers_only-dos.tar.bz2&directory=Extension&
