这两天看boost的mailing list, Hugo Duncan这个牛人说要把boost sandbox cvs里socket拿掉了。
Hugo Duncan这个牛人是不是太追求完美了，肯定是老有人抱怨他写的慢（不过确实够慢的），
他索性来个“I have moved it out of the boost-sandbox because
my development has been very slow, and I did not want to
give the impression of blocking anyone else who had more
time from developing a "boost.socket" library”。
真是让人失望，为啥不先整个能用的，边用边改，有些别的boost库不就是这么干的。

Would anybody mind if I removed the sandbox version to prevent any more
people
spending time on that code?
I am aiming to make an intial alpha release of giallo in the next couple
of weeks. Following recent discussions I have factored out the
demultiplexer
code to be completely independent of the socket code, and am in the process
of generating some initial documentation. The giallo CVS codebase will
be somewhat unstable until then.

Would you put pack your Gallio developments into the boost foundry???
This is a quite important question and and your answer is even more
important. At our development center, we are quite ennoyed to have many
differents open source softwares that we use for building ours. Some are out
of date, some are not really portable, some are unmaitained. So, there has
been a decision to focus our subsystems software on boost and only on boost
(whenever possible) because the overall framework of boost give us a
coherent, maintained, portable and sustained C++ foundry.
As such, we would appreciate that socket/gallio be back in the boost arena.

A good friend will come bail you out of jail..........
but, a true friend....will be sitting next to you saying:
"...that was fun."
