Subject: [boost] Twenty years and time to retire

From: Beman Dawes (bdawes_at_[hidden])

The idea behind Boost was hatched in March, 1998, and the proposal document

<https://www.boost.org/users/proposal.pdf> was released May 6, 1998. That

makes Boost twenty years old, and makes me twenty years older. It is high

time I retire from Boost; I haven't been able to contribute for some time

now.



Thanks to all of you who made Boost such an overwhelming success in the

past and will drive Boost forward into a bright future!
