I know this isn't the main thrust of this discussion, but I just wanted
to point out that submissions really ought to be under the Boost
license (and I guess not just 'a Boost-compatible license') when they
are submitted, not when they are accepted. As far as I recall this has
been what has happened in the past.

As someone else has pointed out, sometimes code can actually be
declared "finished"!
