I'm busy too, on my agenda is a 2-dimensional circular buffer
concept - which led me to revisit boost, and start lurking
on gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel. I think if Jan goes ahead
with non-autoresizing circular_buffer, I might use that
as a basis for my 2-dimensional variant. (A 2d sliding
window caching kind of problem) With Jan's permission/blessing
obviously.... Perhaps better not to infringe on Metrowerks
unless absolutely no consensus can be formed by patient
debate... :-)
The conceptual process here has been a big help for me
to crystalise some aspects of circular buffers, I genuinely
think that circular_buffer and circular_deque would both
be worthy additions to boost, once refined.
