<h2><a name="main">Boost</a> developers mailing list (also available via
|
|
|
|
newsgroup)</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>This is the main Boost mailing list. It is high volume (over
|
|
|
|
1000 messages per month), very technical, and oriented toward Boost
|
|
|
|
library developers. It is also read by many other members interested in
|
|
|
|
watching the Boost library development process. Virtually all Boost
|
|
|
|
decisions, major or minor, technical or otherwise, are reached via public
|
|
|
|
discussion on this mailing list. It is where the formal reviews of
|
|
|
|
proposed libraries take place. Subscribe or unsubscribe at <a href=

signed up for this main mailing list.</p>
