asio has 54 open pull requests, python has 32 open pull requests, and
graph has 36 open pull requests. I mention these because I do not think
any maintainer is paying any attention to those libraries, and because
they are among those who have ignored my PR for integrating Embarcadero
C++ clang-based compilers into Boost. Among the other libraries for
which I created a PR to integrate Embarcadero clang-based compilers into
Boost are fiber, iostreams, thread, program_options, units,
circular_buffer, parameter, unordered, typeof, and the aforementioned
random.
I do feel bad for supporting Cromwell Enage for maintaining parameter,
since he has disappeared after doing such a good job modernizing the
library, but he appeared pretty talented, knowledgable, and enthusiastic
to me.
