Which boost libraries are heading for TR2?

If found this quote at boost.org:

More Boost libraries are in the pipeline for TR2

It links to the TR2 call from proposals. But I can't seem to find any other information on which boost libraries are headed for TR2.

I've seen a draft proposal for Boost.Asio, and I vaguely remember seeing something about Boost.System and Boost.Filesystem being proposed as well.

  • Which boost libraries are headed for TR2?
  • What else has been proposed for the TR2?
  • Are there any good sources of information for this?

I know everyone's really focused on C++0x right now, and don't expect to find a lot of official information. But surely someone's documented something about the TR2.

Sorry to answer my own question but after Neil's slap-in-the-face comment I had to find out for myself and none of the other comments were at all helpful.

Wikipedia doesn't have a C++ Technical Report 2 page but it does have a tr2 section in the C++ Technical Report 1 page.

Here is a quick list from Wikipedia.

  • Boost.Asio
  • Signals/Slots, a combination of Boost.Signals and libsigc++
  • Boost.Filesystem
  • Boost.Any
  • boost::lexcal_cast<>
  • Boost.String Algo
  • Boost.System

There are a couple more as well. Wikipedia has the links for to the actual proposals. The latest proposal (something about heterogenious containers) as sent in May 2009, less than a year ago.
