From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Still not on Boost, unfortunately.

Do you have any statements from the dev? Would be curious to know if there's anything that corroborates it being abandoned or on hiatus.

But it sure does seem that way. I remember Boost for Reddit getting updates all the time, and this one had a few in the beginning, then it just kinda stopped with bugs unresolved.

It's a shame, because there's a lot to like about Boost.
