Currently, that is me. One of my top priorities is to recruit others. The goal is to have a set of people (size unknown) who are proactive in proposing and reviewing changes, and a second group (also size unknown, but with a large overlap with the first) who are willing and able to commit other people’s changes (after they have been reviewed) and make sure that they are applied correctly, don’t break things, and get into upcoming releases. (No more having patches languish on trunk). Since you’re unsure, I must not have made that clear enough on the CMT page. https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/CommunityMaintenance — Marshall _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-maint
