Re: [boost and xerces] ping maintainers


Haclav,

I am using Boost's random number generator template library with cygwin for statistical simulations
and am very happy with it. It would be a shame to abandon support of the Boost libraries.


Can you point out to me where you see any Boost DLLs? I only see *.hpp template files.

Best,

Werner

First, thank-you for supporting these packages in Cygwin.  It's
appreciated very much, at least by me.

From the mailing list archives, it appears the last boost package
(v1.33.1) was rolled in 01/08, and the last xerces package (v2.8.0)
in 05/08. Any possibility of updating them to the current releases
(i.e., boost v1.38.0 and xerces v3.0.1)?
I have given up on Boost package on Cygwin. Boost build AFAIK does not
follow the naming conventions Cygwin has for DLLs (or did not the last
time I checked) and I do not have the willpower to hack it into submission.

If you feel like taking over the Cygwin Boost package, try Boost Cygport
as starting point for a new Cygwin package.
