Actually, I was just passing the information along. I'm too busy with Mathematica right now to focus on these papers. I did have an extensive discussion about matters related to this topic on comp.lang.c++.moderated several months ago.
Ok, did not know what to do with your post. Thought you would like this topic to be discussed here, which I think would be inappropriate on this list.

I don't believe it would be inappropriate. It would, however, be unlikely. Skimming the papers, and knowing what they imply is probably of value for anybody serious about C++ programming. Though the formalism is new, the concepts work is not. There are some support libraries for this on the Boost site. Interestingly, I learned about the papers from a post on the /moderated/ Mathematica newsgroup/mailing list where the subject is arguably far less topical than it is here. Since this list tends to be fairly sleepy, I will contend that topicality is defined by the participant (within reason). Steven
