Repost of a snippet of Doug Gregor's original announcement of this list
and call for volunteers:
A small group of volunteers has been working on a new build system for
Boost based on CMake, a cross-platform, open-source build system. We
have reached the point where our core build system has become
relatively stable, and we are requesting volunteers to help us improve
the build system further by improving the documentation, implementing
new features, porting the system to other platforms, etc. We are most
interested in volunteers who are:
* Willing to learn the CMake build system and the Boost-specific
macros we have built for CMake
* Interested in the technical challenges of building, testing, and
deploying Boost
* Able to test on a variety of platforms and compilers
* Willing to write as much documentation as code (or more!)
* Unwilling to participate in build-system flame wars
Anyone interested in joining this effort should read about CMake and
our CMake-based build system for Boost (links below), then join the
Boost-CMake mailing list (also below).
