A new C++ standard is about to be finalized, and a plethora of powerful new language features is expected to transform the way we program. Boost has been a major contributor to the new library facilities, and is still going strong with over 90 libraries in the latest release. We expect the Boost community to continue to be a major force in C++ evolution, but it will take your participation. This BoF is a chance for the C++ and Boost community to meet face-to-face, share the ways you're using the language, Boost libraries, and discuss where we're headed.
