just from scanning a few things related to BOOST and TR2's documents, I got 
this:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


http://www.open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG21/docs/papers/2009/n2849.pdf
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_31_0/tools/build/v1/mingw-tools.html

- BOOST is supposed to be integrated into TR2.  for now it is a separate 
library.

- decimal floating point is possibly coming to TR2.

- numeric_traits in TR2 if it isn't already there


I should have put these both into one email.

I have posted a lot lately, unless I am responded to, I will shut up for a 
while.



have a look at page 3.  floating point is going to change not only in software 
but in hardware implementation as well.  it is going to become more stringent.  
I think this may mean that if the processors aren't already out on the market, 
there will be a shift (no pun intended) in the implementation of the FPU 
(Floating Point Unit) portion of the processor.
new hardware means a new code base.

Computer memory/disk size measurements:
[KB KiB] [MB MiB] [GB GiB] [TB TiB]
[10^3B=1,000B=1KB][2^10B=1,024B=1KiB]
[10^6B=1,000,000B=1MB][2^20B=1,048,576B=1MiB]
[10^9B=1,000,000,000B=1GB][2^30B=1,073,741,824B=1GiB]
[10^12B=1,000,000,000,000B=1TB][2^40B=1,099,511,627,776B=1TiB]
Note: disk size is measured in MB, GB, or TB, not in MiB, GiB, or TiB.  
computer 
memory (RAM) is measured in MiB and GiB.
