+I think there is a misunderstanding. They exclude GPL and LGPL for
+library SUBMITTED. They want more of a BSD kind I think. You could not
+submit Nel for Boost acceptance,
+&lt;Quote&gt;
+ To avoid the frustration and wasted time of a proposed library being
+ rejected, it must meets these requirements:
+ * The license must meet the license requirements below. Restricted
+ licenses like the GPL and LGPL are not acceptable.
+ &lt;/Quote&gt;
+Note : &quot;proposed library&quot;
+No such restriction is imposed on code using a boost library: reading from
+their licenses requirement
+&lt;Quote&gt;
+ * Must grant permission to copy, use and modify the software for any
+ use (commercial and non-commercial) for no fee.
+&lt;/Quote&gt;
+
+You cannot say that you are not allowed to use a library with such a
+licence (Note: ANY USE ) !!!
+
+I don't want to force you to use anything from boost, I just would want you
+to dismiss it for bad reasons. As a C++ coder, I found it invaluable
+(just for fun you migh look at the lambda library at <A HREF="http://lambda.cs.utu.fi/">http://lambda.cs.utu.fi/</A>
+I never thought it would be possible). Of course their aim to &quot;perfection&quot;
+leads them to move slowly at time (network threads are not there yet...), and
+their advanced use of C++ clashes with crappy compiler (VC++). But if you
+can use it, their stuff really shines. I have not tested their py_cpp
+c++ to python wrapper, but I though you might be interested.
+
+Happy coding !
