- <h3>January 26, 2004 - Version 1.31.0</h3>
-
-
- <h4>New License</h4>
- a unified <a href="more/license_info.html">Boost Software License</a> has been
- developed and will gradually replace the individual licenses for most Boost libraries.
- The new license offers better legal protection for both users and developers,
- and should speed user's legal reviews of Boost libraries. Dave Abrahams led the
- Boost effort to develop better licensing. The legal team was led by <a href="http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/people/cabell/index.html">
- Diane Cabell</a>, Director, Clinical Programs, <a href="http://cyber.law.harvard.edu">
- Berkman Center for Internet &amp; Society</a>, Harvard Law School. <a href="http://www.nixonpeabody.com/attorneys_detail1.asp?ID=121">
- Devin Smith</a>, attorney, <a href="http://www.nixonpeabody.com/default.asp">Nixon
- Peabody LLP</a>, wrote the Boost License. Eva Chan, Harvard Law School,
- contributed analysis of issues and drafts of various legal documents.
- <blockquote>
- <b>Please Note:</b> Many of the Boost
- libraries are still using earlier
- licenses, though all conform to the <a
- href="more/lib_guide.htm#license">Boost
- License Requirements</a>. After this
- release we will begin an effort to
- move toward uniform use of the new
- license.

- <h3>August 12, 2003 - <b>ALERT</b></h3>
- <p>
- Significant problems were found in the 1.30.1 release, so it has been withdrawn
- from the website. These problems mostly take the form of missing files due to
- an error by the release manager in using CVS to tag the release. We expect to
- release Version 1.30.2 in a few days. Stay tuned.
- <p>Until then, you may want to get the <code>RC_1_30_0</code> branch (which, with
- only very slight modification, will become version 1.30.2) from our <a href="more/getting_started.html#CVS">
- CVS</a> repository or the <a href="more/getting_started.html#CVS">CVS mirror</a>
- at <a href="http://www.boost-consulting.com">Boost Consulting</a>
