I'd like to deprecate or remove two libraries:

Doesn't one of the classes in Boost.Random have the same distribution as min_rand? If so, we can do a transition by changing min_rand to a typedef of the updated class.
Yes, IIRC the same generator is available. But I don't think there is any need for a transition; we've been signalling for years that min_rand was due for removal.
Has the exact substitute in Boost.Random ever been specified? In a way that an user that used min_rand who finds it gone can find out what the substitute is? Are you sure that no Boost code is still using min_rand?
