Let's proceed with option #2 ("jam", "libs", "python-libs" and "docs"). Personally, I like the idea #4 of having source-libs and a port per a shared library. I'd like to have another discussion on that when some statistics on boost usage in ports is ready. I have questions on how to perform this task: 1) Given that port freeze starts on 13th, are there any chances to have boost-1.38 splitted into several packages in 7.2-RELEASE? 2) Is is permitted to test patch for updating to 1.38 with some ports, not with all that depend on boost and then file a PR, specifying which ports were tested? The aim is to omit building and testing some ports (like openoffice) myself. Sincerely, Alexander Churanov, maintainer of devel/boost
