Well, on April 11, 2003 the C++ standards committee voted a proposal
based on the contents of "boost/smart_ptr.hpp" into the first library
technical report. It could start appearing in your local
vendor-supplied <memory> header under namespace std::tr1 just any day
now.
That seems pretty on topic to me, especially for a newsgroup called
comp.lang.c++ (as opposed to comp.std.c++).
In fact I find Cy's post infinitely more on topic, and more helpful,
than say the following posts:

| What?! That was the finest genetically engineered Merican cheese food
| substitute. All you had to do was unwrap it and place it on the ground,
| it would have dissolved a tunnel straight down at least 500 feet (that's
| like 29657.222 kizzometrics or whatever weird measurements you use over
| there). No disposal costs were required at all.
|
| You don't know much about cheese.

| Well, I feel that way about many of your posts, especially on
