I see there are least two other independent copies of Boost Enum on github. AFAICT, your copy is the most active.

What are your intentions with this repo? To push it to the Boost Incubator for eventual inclusion in Boost? To publish for mostly personal use? What are the nature of the changes you have made here?

I have found Boost.Enum useful and have made a few changes to 4.6 locally myself. I'd be willing to push them out to the world, but I don't want to duplicate effort and want to put them in the best spot for the community.

Hi! This repository isn't a copy of the old Boost.Enum, but a completely new project. IIRC, support for Boost.Enum was dropped after nobody wanted to maintain it after the original maintainer left.

Yes, the plan was initially to put it into the Incubator and get it into Boost at some point. A friend of mine is currently using it in his game engine so I do at least have some user feedback, but I have not yet brought the documentation to a point where I feel comfortable publishing it to the incubator and at this point, I've put it on hiatus because I'm working on other, non-related projects.
