  70. <p>The Boost web site provides free peer-reviewed portable C++ source libraries.
  71. The emphasis is on libraries which work well with the C++ Standard Library. One
  72. goal is to establish "existing practice" and provide reference implementations
  73. so that the Boost libraries are suitable for eventual standardization. Some of
  74. the libraries have already been proposed for inclusion in the <a href="http://anubis.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc22/wg21/">
  75. C++ Standards Committee</a>'s upcoming C++ Standard Library Technical
  76. Report.</p>
  77. <p>Although Boost was begun by members of the C++ Standards Committee Library
  78. Working Group, membership has expanded to include nearly two thousand members
  79. of the C++ community at large.</p>
  80. <h2><a name="Membership">Membership</a></h2>
  81. <p>If you are interested in becoming a member of Boost, please do so by joining our
  82. main developers mailing list. Discussions include both technical and
  83. site-related issues, and members are encouraged to participate in formal
  84. reviews of proposed libraries. There is also a users mailing list.</p>
  85. <p>Both the main Boost developers list and the users list are also accessible as <a href="more/mailing_lists.htm">
