<p>
The following people have provided valuable feedback and suggestions during the
development of the library: Ion Gazta&ntilde;aga, Janek Kozicki, Tobias Schwinger,
Pavel Vo&#382;en&iacute;lek. Simon Atanasyan contributed a workaround for a
problem with Sun Studio compilers. Rosa Bern&aacute;rdez has proofread the
documentation from the first drafts up to its present form.
</p>

<p>
The acceptance review of Boost.Flyweight took place between January 21st
and February 3rd 2008. Many thanks to Ion Gazta&ntilde;aga, the stalwart review manager,
and to all the reviewers: Alberto Ganesh Barbati, Tim Blechmann,
Vicente Juan Botet Escrib&aacute;, Mat&iacute;as Capeletto, Neil Hunt, Marcus Lindblom,
John Reid, David Sankel, Kevin Sopp, John Torjo, Markus Werle. Alberto identified
important limitations of the initial design, which led to the
introduction of <a href="tutorial/key_value.html">key-value flyweights</a>.
</p>

<p>
Boost.Flyweight relies on the
<a href="../../mpl/doc/index.html">Boost MPL Library</a> from
Aleksey Gurtovoy. The
<a href="tutorial/configuration.html#free_order_template">free-order template
parameter interface</a> offered by the library has been implemented
with the <a href="../../parameter/doc/html/index.html">Boost Parameter
Library</a> from David Abrahams and Daniel Wallin. Ion Gazta&ntilde;aga's
<a href="../../interprocess/index.html">Boost Interprocess Library</a>
is the core element behind the
<a href="tutorial/configuration.html#intermodule_holder"><code>intermodule_holder</code></a>
component.
</p>

<p>
This work is dedicated to Jorge L&oacute;pez, in the hope that past
dire straits gentler oceans will lie.

<h2><a name="boost_1_39">Boost 1.39 release</a></h2>

<p>
Many thanks to Tim Blechmann for helping identify and solve a serious
<a href="release_notes.html#refcounted_bug">thread safety problem</a>
and to Peter Dimov for kindly extending the interface of his
<code>boost::detail::atomic_count</code> utility to allow for the
implementation of the fix.
</p>

<h2><a name="boost_1_57">Boost 1.57 release</a></h2>

<p>
Boost.Flyweight serialization uses the newly introduced
<a href="../../serialization/doc/special.html#helpersupport">helper support
functionality</a> of the <a href="../../serialization/index.html">Boost Serialization Library</a>
from Robert Ramey. Without helper support, serialization of <code>flyweight</code>s would have
been unacceptably costly in terms of archive space consumption.
