Hi Doug,
Wow. Blast from the past -- at least that code is. I had some idea what
you were up to, after using boost recently and seeing your name in charge
of the release.
As for the license, I have no problem with that. You have my full
permission to use the Boost Software License 1.0, or any other future
variant. As long as my name stays on the code, I don't really care what
happens to it. =)

Hi Doug,
I consent to changing the license of the code I submitted to the BGL to
use the Boost Software License, version 1.0 and later.
By the way, it seems that it is not referrenced at all in the
documentation. May I suggest you to set a link to adjacency_list_io.hpp
(marked with a star) in libs/graph/doc/table_of_contents.html near AT&T
Graphviz Read/Write Utilities ? The link text could be something like
"flexible input-output of adjacency lists on iostreams"
Yours,
FF.
