                <p>The Boost web site provides free peer-reviewed portable
                C++ source libraries. The emphasis is on libraries which work
                well with the C++ Standard Library. One goal is to establish
                "existing practice" and provide reference implementations so
                that the Boost libraries are suitable for eventual
                standardization. Some of the libraries have already been
                proposed for inclusion in the <a href=
                "http://anubis.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc22/wg21/">C++ Standards
                Committee</a>'s upcoming C++ Standard Library Technical
                Report.</p>

                <p>Although Boost was begun by members of the C++ Standards
                Committee Library Working Group, membership has expanded to
                include nearly two thousand members of the C++ community at
                large.</p>

                <h2><a name="Membership">Membership</a></h2>

                <p>If you are interested in becoming a member of Boost,
                please do so by joining our main developers mailing list.
                Discussions include both technical and site-related issues,
                and members are encouraged to participate in formal reviews
                of proposed libraries. There is also a users mailing
                list.</p>

                <p>Both the main Boost developers list and the users list are
                also accessible as <a href=
                "more/mailing_lists.htm">newsgroups</a>.</p>
