Re: Stage 2 ends?

Mark,

I have a simple C++ patch which I need to clean up for submission (it makes us
not print default arguments for template parameters in diagnostics, which is
much requested from the Boost community). It doesn't qualify for Stage 3
though, so I would like to know what's the current status of Stage 2. As things
stand now, Stage 2 ends tomorrow.

Yes; Stage 2 will indeed end tomorrow.


However, I've been trying to give more discretion to maintainers of back ends and languages to accept patches that they are convinced are safe, sane, and highly worthwhile. So, I think you might still get your patch into 4.1, if you're lucky.

Then again, there are a lot of regression in 4.[01] at this point, so the Boost folks might appreciate you fixing some of those as well. :-)
