- both "newbie" and more challenging questions, but please check first to

|
- see if there's an appropriate <a href="#projects">Project-Specific</a>
|
|
|
- list; you'll often get better answers in a forum dedicated to your
|
|
|
- problem area. This list is relatively low volume (less than 500 per

- <h3><a name="jamboost">Boost.Build</a> (jamboost) list</h3>

- <h3><a name="cplussig">Python C++-Sig</a> (for Boost.Python)</h3>
|
|
|
- The <a href="http://www.python.org/sigs/c++-sig/">Python C++-sig</a>
|
|
|
- is not strictly Boost-specific, but nearly all the traffic concerns
|
|
|
- <a href="../libs/python">Boost.Python</a>. See also the <a href="#langbinding" >Language Binding</a> list below. GMane provides <a

|
|
|
- The <a href="http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/boost-langbinding" >Language
|
|
|
- Binding</a> list is for discussion of a generalized framework for
|
|
|
- binding C++ to other languages and systems based on the technology of
|
|
|
- <a href="../libs/python">Boost.Python</a> and <a href="http://luabind.sourceforge.net/" >Luabind</a>. The plan is to provide
|
|
|
- a single front-end for describing bindings with runtime-pluggable
|
|
|
- back ends for binding to specific languages. It is <b>highly
|
|
|
- recommended</b> that new subscribers read through the <a href="http://news.gmane.org/thread.php?group=gmane.comp.lib.boost.langbinding" >
|
|
|
- message history</a> <b>from the beginning</b> before posting; it will
|
|
|
- save time as much design progress has already been made. GMane
|
|
|
- provides <a href="news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.langbinding" >NNTP
