Boost.Test currently includes 100K of Microsoft 6 project files in
boost-root/libs/test/build.
These add a lot of size to the distribution, are problems for CVS (which
because they are binary, require a full copy every time there is a change,
increasing the cost of backup), are of no use to non-Microsoft users, on a
format that MS typically changes with each release, and are trivial for a
user do duplicate (since Boost.Test doesn't require sophisticated build
techniques).
I think they should be removed. Am I just being grouchy, or do others
agree?
