Yes, this is what I noticed afterwards. :P
Hence my "maybe not" post.
Anyways, thanks for the clarification and now that the license issue is 
cleared, rest assured we'll pay closer attentions to the libs.

Arg, it wasn't my intent !
At first reading I just thought there was licensing compatibilities issues 
that prevented the use of the libs for GPL/LGP programs. My bad: I was 
wrong. But it sure would be nice to incorporate Boost stuff if we can !
Actually, Cyrille (3D Lead) went to school with one of the Boost guys... :)
