[REVIEW] Boost.Predef

Hi all,

first, I want to apologize for the delay in getting this review results 
out. Looks like my last email get lost at some point.

Anyway, after the initial review of Rene Riviera Boost.Predef, my 
decision was to Conditionnally Accept Boost.Predef under the request 
that the comments raised during the review period were addressed.

Since then, Rene worked hard on actually making those changes so I now 
feel confident to announce that Boost.Predef is ACCEPTED as a Boost library.

Regards

Deadline extension: C++ Now 2013, Call for Submissions


Please see below for the extended deadline.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 C++ NOW CONFERENCE 2013 - Aspen CO, USA, May 13-17, 2013, www.cppnow.org
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
--------------------
We invite you to submit session proposals to the 2nd annual C++ Now
Conference (Aspen CO, USA, May 13-17, 2013).

Building upon the resounding success of C++ Now 2012 and five years of
BoostCon, C++ Now 2013 will present leading speakers from the whole C++ 
community.

The C++ Now Conference is dedicated to discussion and education about C++,
an open and free language and standard.  Our Conference will focus on
discussion and education about open source software usage and developments 
in the C++ developer and user community.

To reflect the breadth of the C++ and Boost communities, the conference 
includes sessions aimed at three constituencies: C++ and Boost end-users, 
hard-core Boost library and tool developers, and researchers pushing the 
boundaries of computation. The program fosters interaction and engagement 
within and across those groups, with an emphasis on hands-on, participatory 
sessions.

As a multi-paradigm language, C++ is a melting pot where the most compelling

[Review] Review results for Coroutines

All,

The review for the Coroutines library written by Oliver Kowalke started
September 3rd 2012, and ended on September 12th 2012. I counted 7 votes,
none of which were NO. All authors votes YES, some made additional requests.
Overall, the verdict of the community was clear:

    Oliver Kowalke's Coroutines library is ACCEPTED

The discussion was lively and it touched on several points.

Design
------
The Coroutines library offers enormous potential for programming regimes
such as communications software and embedded systems design. Oliver selected
a sensible granularity for his design. This granularity allows for
fine-tuning the implementations of cooperative scheduling mechanisms while
avoiding the prohibitively heavy weight of preemptive scheduling that is
found in POSIX and often in implementations of the C++11 thread support
library.

In particular, the separation of Coroutines from Context allows for porting
to other systems with minimal effort and maximum reliability and code
re-use.

Some suggestion related to the API have been made during the review, most of
which (if not all) have already been addressed. Oliver has a full list of
things and works on integrating the suggestions. Here is a short list:
- allow to specify the allocator to use for memory allocations inside the
library
